I know you feel bad for Stephen Ross, I mean he only could afford 1.1 billion dollars to buy the Miami Dolphins.
http://sports.yahoo.com/nfl/news?slug=nfp-20110322_dolphins_stephen_ross_no_fan_of_unions_in_general"The unions have kind of exceeded their bounds, if you know what I mean, in just about every aspect of life," Ross told a group of South Florida reporters. "Every single industry that is union dominated, those companies are in trouble. You look at every state and city government, they're all bankrupt. There's a reason why there's a lot of anti-union sentiment in the country today."Well I bet Ross is super concerned about bankrupt city government being all driven into the poor house by fat cat Union workers. I mean it's a tough life for a guy who's Sun Life Stadium (Joe Robbie Stadium) is on land owned by Miami-Dade County and leased to the Dolphins for $1 a year! Seriously what idiot on the Dolphins negotiated that contract, they got pay a whole * dollar. I bet if some non-union state employee had been across that negotiating table Ross could have got a fair price like a nickel. You know it occurs to me for a guy all worried about government debt it sure seems funny him asking for 225 million in public funds to redo his stadium? Hell the old owner (the guy who's name use to be on said building) built his own stadium with his own money.
But hey Stephen Ross is still looking out for the little guy
"Costs are going up," Ross said. "We're at the point now people can't afford to pay more for their entertainment," Hey Stephen you know why people can't afford to pay to see your team anymore, it's because anti-union * like yourself have been stealing the tax payers blind for years while slow ratcheting down their salaries.
