A lot of dirty, backroom deals were made to derail the previous Indy 11 stadium. We need DOGE to investigate!
While I agree at the same time Simon gives this opportunity much more credibility. Nothing against the Indy 11 owner but he does not have the same horsepower as a sitting NBA/WNBA franchisee holder.
MLS has made it clear Indianapolis can have an MLS team with someone else as the owner, or we can spend even more taxpayer money than originally promised to build Eleven Park for a guy who will never, ever be given an MLS team. We can have the soccer version of the Alamodome.
If it was as simple as not having money, why hasn’t adding Chuck Surack fixed it?
Ozdemir had two chances to land a franchise and failed. The cost to land a team has quadrupled in the interim. If you’re going to be mad at the city, be mad because they let Ozdemir flail for so long before shutting his efforts down.
Shoveling more $s to Hogsett’s benefactors… Per the Indy Star: “Hogsett’s second biggest individual donor, who donated $50,000 to Hogsett’s campaign, is Herbert Simon…”
While I agree at the same time Simon gives this opportunity much more credibility. Nothing against the Indy 11 owner but he does not have the same horsepower as a sitting NBA/WNBA franchisee holder.
Soccer BLOWS!!!!!!👺🤬☠️☠️☠️
