Do some research. Sports arenas and major sports events are a money loser to the communities that have them. The only benefactor of a new sports facility appears to be the team owner that insisted on the new facility or they would move the team. Don't give in to the threat.

Let us have a rational discussion on the actual benefits and costs of these sports facilities.
