As an Ryan Field Neighbor, I’ve been saying for 2 years how dishonest both NU and the city behaved. Between this and D65, I would have left dodge a long time ago if I could afford to.

But instead I stayed and was called terrible names for opposing both of these corrupt bodies!

The city(Biss) and NU were dishonest when they had the Black pastors hold a meeting in support of the stadium saying it will provide “ generational wealth” in the 5th ward. How’s that working out? How many union electricians, construction trade workers and plumbers have been created in the 5th ward?

Trust but verify. The pastors are partially responsible for believing the statement/promise without verifying that it would happen.

However, if you can’t keep your word to a bunch of pastors, jeez, you are clearly not worthy of trust.

I got called a NIMBY and torn apart on next door by a pro-concert member because I expressed concern that our kids were at risk of getting hit by cars that speed through the alleys (we have video evidence of this regularly during both basketball games and low attendance football games so not even during the sold out events).
