Phila. Eagles debt could keep libraries open
From Susie at Suburban Guerrilla:

http://www.philly.com/philly/hp/news_update/20081119_Money_Under_Stadium_Seats_.html

snip> Amount of money the city will save by shutting 11 libraries: $8 million.
Amount of money the Eagles have owed the city for years: $8 million.
It's a tie!

1. Great post. The Eagles got plenty of concessons from the city
when they got the new stadium.
They would gain a lot of respect if they paid the city back for the loan, and the way their season is going, they won't get much respect otherwise.

Rec.
