That pretty much sums it up.

 

I'm anxiously holding my breathe for a good result by May 1. :sweating

On Thursday, the House Tax & Finance Committee OK'd the plan that would give the Marlins $2 million annually over the next 30 years.? ? But the tax break still has to be approved by both the House and Senate. And King is not likely to be swayed from his position, his spokesperson said, especially since a budget shortfall will necessitate cuts to social services, including pre-natal care for needy women.

 

As I understand it there are two parts to this provision. One that would take the rebate Huizenga currently receives for the Marlins and giving it to Loria, and another that would then give a rebate to Huizenga for the Dolphins.

So if they're worried about the budget why not take out the excess spending in the bill for Huizenga and give the Marlins what rightfully belongs to them? Or is that just too simple for the nitwits to do?

Because it seems that in this country, we elect the dumbest people possible for the highest positions possible. :thumbdown

Not to mention they already found that Huizenga only needed $10 million of his $60 million for the work on Pro Player.... :mad :

I think Marlins fans could have enjoyed a better ballpark if it had not Huizenga spent that fifty million on the Jay Fielders of the world.

can someone just give us a rundown of whats been going on?
