LETTER: Stop the giveaways to rich professional sports owners

Why did Nevada politicos shovel $750 cardinal successful payer dollars to the carpet-bagging proprietor of the Oakland — er, Los Angeles … oops, marque that Oakland again — Raiders erstwhile helium tin spend to physique a $14 cardinal home?

Professional sports owners person nary loyalty to the cities they correspond oregon to the players connected their teams. Meanwhile, players amusement small loyalty to the cities successful which they execute oregon to the squad they play for. However, the owners and players bash person 1 happening successful common: Neither has immoderate loyalty to the fans. The lone ones who are expected to beryllium loyal are the suckers who are hoodwinked into believing the games person immoderate effect connected their lives.
