1. remember. Politicians are done with this. Republicans are over using Tax payer funds. and Dems HATE Billionaires with an unmitigated passion, so good luck with Hobbs and Gallego

2. Team has paid no rent since 2018, have keys. Fix nothing

3. Bye Bye Dbacks! This just it not a sports town! People here dont care about the sports teams

4. Build a new stadium, move on.

5. Just build a new stadium

6. How about Hall sells the team.

7. Coyotes left…. If the Dbacks leave then I’ll never be an Arizona Fan again. I’ll just bandwagon from then on.

8. The state needs to fix this.

9. Sell the team is the solution.

10. News like this does not boost morale of the team when they are pushing for another playoffs right now, just sad

11. Should never have built that ball park in the first place. Had season tickets 1998, Briefly worked for the team. Phoenix should have bought the team when Colangelo sold it.

12. The Dbacks ruined a $400 million facility by refusing to do the correct maintenance. Theres absolutely no reason the AC and Roof should be failing. That alone shows their negligence. The only thing Chase should need at this point is a little bit of modernization but they basically ruined that facility. Need owners that arent a bunch of broke bitches

13. Its hilarious toronto's decade older retractable roof stadium is in better shape

14. Just go back to the Cards and Suns. Az wants to be like California well Az Cali finds a way to keep their teams.

15. Get your shit together County!!

16. Taxpayers should not pay for stadiums or subsidize any business by waiving their corporate taxes.

17. I guess d backs will be in Vegas

18. Sorry to here this news. The commies have taken over.

19. Stupid citizens proud of cities and teams from far away. Part of the problem is they not caring about Arizona teams.

20. I imagine the cardinals will follow suit or monkey see, monkey doo !! Taxpayers should not foot the bill for renovations or a new stadium…

21. I am not an expert on the business side of this, but I don’t understand why when Maricopa County can arrange a deal for more than half of MLB’s teams to host Spring Training at sites within a few hours of each other (at most) – even luring the Dodgers from their historic location in Florida – they can’t reach some kind of terms to keep the hometown team in their hometown long term. I guess it’s apples and oranges bc the County Sports Authority found a way to make money on the Spring Training arrangement but still. I honestly don’t understand. Can someone please explain this? Or can you guys discuss this on the show?

22. Wait, the Diamond Backs want a new stadium already? WTF?

23. Typical at this stage of the negotiations. Non-story. Most of the political hacks the team is dealing with have been, or will be, soon voted out. Then again, even worst ones could be voted in.

24. Arizona has the worst sports team owners. Cheap-o’s and down right corrupt. 🤡 🤦🏻‍♂️

25. The dbacks want a stadium district. Theyve been crying for years. The fans just want ac and a roof that works
