Ruiz stadium update

However, if our financial report shows we owe $12.5m on the lease, what does that indicate?

Also, word-play is interesting. Utilizing the phrase: “don’t pay rent” would indicate Miami is not paying to play at HRS, which is untrue. My ex-wife use to do word-play games w/ me. She’ll take money from my account & say “I’m going to the store.” Well, b/c when we say “store” meant grocery store, she gave the indication that she took money to go to the grocery store. When she came back, there were no groceries, but she had mall bags. When asked ‘I thought u were going to the store?’ her reply was, “I did, Neiman Marcus is a store, isn’t it?” Was she technically correct? Yes, but utilizing a certain phrase gave a deceptive appearance.

By saying & arguing that Miami doesn’t pay rent, but it shares revenue, that’s the same chit. lol We’re paying to play there; the shared revenue is the cost, the rent, to play at HRS. So were u “technically” right that we don’t pay rent? Yes, in the traditional sense of how most ppl pay rent, but we’re paying rent in another form.
just saw this - you need a better attorney bc there is absolutely ways you can restrict some of where your alimony is going to in terms of necessities and not esp if its outrageous in what she claims she needs

Lol; naw that story was b4 the divorce. Lol. She ain’t received chit. She was smugglin $$ from account for yrs, while hiding other assets. Long story short, got her ***! Lol. I was just using how she was tricky w/ words & always used “technically” I wasn’t lying. Lol.
 
your last point - there a large number of UF alums that live in sfl. the fins fanbase is made up of people who went to ton of diff schools not just UM. on top of that a former gator was the one who was behind organizing it (he was a former dolphin great). I didn't like it but as a fins fan, I know every person didn't go to UM who live in miami and grew up loving the fins. they went to UF, FSU, UCF, USF, FIU, etc. ****, in reality, there are less fins fans amongst the canes alumni than there are at other schools in FL bc the canes student body isnt locally source. its more out of state.

another point - I dont want any HS using the stadium. non starter for me. I hate how we have to share the field w the fins and never get out end zones. I dont want hs kids tearing up the field the day before canes games. I dont want a single HS using the field.

It shouldn't be an issue with a good groundskeeping crew. If I remember correctly, the OB had HS games played there, and I don't think it was ever an issue.

Those games can always be scheduled during away game/bye weeks too.

I guarantee this will probably be part of Ruiz's pitch to the county to get the land. He's going to throw every possible element of "community enjoyment/utilization" at them. Graduations, cop funerals, ethnic festivals, Ultra, Exxxotica, Santeria sacrifices, etc. will all be offered as possibilities to take place there.

Just no hillbilly **** (even if we join the SEC). Take it from me, if Kenny Chesney plays your venue it becomes a cursed garbage dump.

I'd love for the high school kids to play some prime-time games there. To each their own. The field won't be an issue lol

R,
Good for you!!

In marriage, business and with the law, I learned long ago that when a person starts saying or using terms like "technically"to describe conduct... it's time to pack it in and walk away bc you're dealing with someone who is straight up dishonest.

Not technically dishonest
Or might be a little dishonest
Or could be considered dishonest

But dishonest to the core.

But I'm not telling you something that you don't already know

It was disgusting and so enjoyable when half the stadium booed including me.
 
One major downside not talked about much about being a renter at Hard Rock is tailgate limitations. What is it only like 4 or 5 hours pregame when gates open? Let the fans in all day long
I am sure people at either stadium, new or current, are dying to pay all the security and parking employees to sit around from 8am on so you can get even more plowed before kickoff. That's money well spent. I'm sure their insurance company is advocating for it as well. You have to be like 18 years old to even type that thought.

Being in south Florida tailgating shouldn’t matter because of what’s available to do throughout south Florida and especially Miami. Normal college towns don’t have that luxury so tailgating is a necessity. I’ve always been pretty surprised with how serious canes fans take tailgating given the surrounding area and what’s readily available to do. You can go to the club at 10 am before a canes game in Miami if you want lmao

I'm sure he'll want every event but he has recency bias of the Marlins an inter-Miami going against him. His fight with the county can't last that long or people will be disinterested. The timing of this and the quick execution is something nobody's talking about

the fight w the county is the longest hurdle. it wont be easy. the mas family took YEARS to get the inter site and even retro fitted another stadium before their own got approved. it wont be quick and it wont be easy. youre only fooling yourself if you think it will be. in the end, timing doesn't matter with the land approval just that it gets approved. inter had beautiful renderings for multiple sites so idc how many renderings he puts out there until the land is officially approved.

honestly is five hours not enough? youre just sitting in the parking lot either way. like if its a noon game, youre in by 8 am anyways. how much earlier do you really wanna be there? I remember when the UF UM gates opened at like 6 am and half the lot was taking naps in their car till 8 lol.

agree sort of... inter was Beckham's fault he was cheap and barely noticed tax costs before turning to the county for help. preserving the park & community involvement will go on long way

i doubt this current commission and mayor would approve the deal. in addition, they still have the taste of Loria's exit from miami and the little money the county got on the sale of the marlins. also, there will be fierce opposition, including me and my family that lives nearby and use the park.

beckham was dead in the water without a strong local partner. once the Mas family came in, it changed the game.

The other thing that may hurt is that construction at the site will take years likely and renders the park off limit for that time

If this project was easy it would have been done long ago. Then again nothing really worthwhile is ever easy.
