    The Moda contract with the city?

    That's a $40 million buyout.

    If a person can buy a team for a billion they can afford $40 mill.

    The problem with that is the city has to agree to it also. You see the problem there?

    Not too sure about that? 40 million isn't gonna cover much of what the Blazers bring to the city. But i'm not an expert on the contract so you very well could be right. Guess the Blazers are going to Vegas.

    It doesn't make sense. I would imagine the league is going to want a team in the Pacific Northwest. It's a large market. The Blazers are in the middle of the pack in terms of revenue brought into the league. Plus the league is wary of Vegas since they held the all-star game there and there were a ton of arrests.

    The reviews on the Park MGM are really mixed.
