    It was the lead at 6. It was mostly about the Bellaire city meeting about the new proposed site. They had Canetti on there as well. Either it's a pretty big story or it's a really slow news day. I am thinking it's the latter.

    I don't want to know anything else about the westpark deal, that place would be ok, but it's downtown where we want to be, and it's EFL that needs to get on board with this. I can't believe his comments, like in the paper the other day he said there are a lot more important things to worry about than this. WTF? He needs to get this on the agenda, get the commissioners to vote for it, and get it built. Downtown. And now.

    New thread or not, I think that generating the discussion, via fax/e-mail/phone calls, will eventually lead the city official to sit up, listen ,and make a decision.
    Maybe it's time to generate a list of city council members from Bellaire to blitz.
    Whatta ya think?

    Could all the slow ups be due to the city really wanting this detention center there? If the thought of a jail in their backyard does not get the Eastend Community worked up, I dont know what will. Surely everyone would prefer a soccer stadium to that!

    We need our stadium already. I get really frusrated when thinking about it. I have now swayed everyone at works opinion to being for the stadium, after having to explain tirz about a thousand times. Well everyone but 2 guys, however they worked for the anise campaign and are loyal to no end. I've explained it all to them in length, even showed her conflicting comments on the stadium. They agree everything looks good to them and that no new taxes would affect them, however "Annise only wants whats best for us, and must have a good reason to oppose the stadium." What?!?! Shes a politian, not your grandmother. Some people just kill me.

    Sorry for the rant, just had to get that off my chest. I feel better now. Now where the hell is our stadium?

    heh. Those guys are idiots. Her "hard-line" anti-stadium stance in that commercial she made was just political posturing for votes. She doesn't oppose the stadium, she just doesn't want to invest any more than what White already offered.

    It's not as smooth as an Obama "Hope and Change" speech...but I did put my 2 cents in as well. I really hope we get this stadium at the intended location.

    click 2 houston and channel 13 can kiss my arse! Back wood Bubbas watch those stations.

    We only rock KHOU 11 or Fox 26.. they show Dynamo love and don't take the negitive approach IMO.

    I partly agree with you... I hate 13, but I have a big love/hate relationship with 2. Some of the people, like Bill Balleza, I really like, and they used to have some great people in the 80s. And I like the production values, the set, the graphics, all that stuff on 2. I just don't like the negative way they report things there, they seem to always be looking for controversy or negative things. One example, way back when they were building Reliant and they had to park rodeo customers offsite and bus them in, they had this report about the busses running late and people having to wait in line for them. When the rodeo was providing the busses for free and they were having to work around all sorts of problems, I thought they were doing a great job under the circumstances. They really had to work to find people that were complaining, but they found some and made a big production of it. I was so mad I wrote them a letter, which they ignored. They're always doing reports like that, things no one really cares about but they try to stir things up anyway. Plus, the Wheel of Justice thing is beyond lame.
    39 loves the Dynamo, by the way.

    Here's my take on the Bellaire proposal and the opposition to it (I asked Billy Connally to say a couple of words)

    Mods - if you find this offensive - by all means feel free to remove it (just leave these words there or else I'll think I have memory loss.


    Mod Warning: May not be safe for work.

    The proposed site isn't even in Bellaire right? WTF do they even have a say in anything?
