Overtown action inches Florida Marlins stadium forward

[BAMAPHIN 22]

The Florida Marlins inched closer to the permanent home they've craved for a decade and a needy community got started toward a much-needed financial jolt on Thursday when Miami commissioners voted unanimously to expand and extend the life of an Overtown redevelopment district.

I've been following this whole stadium thing for so long now that I don't even know what to think anymore. I want the Marlins to stay. BADLY. But this deal seems like a bad idea in this economy and I don't trust our politicians to handle this deal in a responsible manner. Like I said, I just don't know what to think.

Thanks for the link though!
