KSL's Opinion On A Soccer Specific Stadium

[DadOf8]

I just heard Duane Cardall read this opinion on KSL. Basically they're saying that those in charge of spending tax money should wait and see if RSL gets support before tax money is spent to build a soccer specific stadium. Here's the link to the opinion:

Interesting article. While I wish we didn't have to deal with this attitude, I do understand it. It is a realistic, down-to-earth attitude. I don't sense any animosity against Real Salt Lake or soccer in general.

I think, if it was baseball, we wouldn't even be having these discussions. It just would have gone through with no notice at all. But it's not really a matter of fairness. It's simply that people don't know soccer, or know what to expect in the way of support. I actually think their attitude is reasonable considering the situation. It's just not what we want. 🙁
