Re: Major League Soccer Stadium in Minneapolis

The MLS, despite having many large wealthy markets without a team has basically has to beg for public money for mostly un needed but lucrative soccer specific stadiums to make their business model work.

Re: Blue Line (Hiawatha LRT)

Just got back home from 38th Street station. Announcement said northbound trains delayed 5 minutes. Nextrip said Due. Saw 2 Metro Transit police cars lit up headed south. I've heard 3 more sirens since I got home. I chose to ignore Nextrip. ;)
