Earthquake shakedown
The San Jose Earthquakes - that's a soccer team, people - are telling the city of San Jose that they want $50 million in public funding toward a new $65 million, 20,000-seat stadium, or they'll skip town. The San Jose Mercury News is on board with the plan, editorializing that to let the Quakes leave would mean "losing a source of inspiration for thousands of children playing youth soccer in the Valley." Hey, at least they'll always have Michael Anthony Bradley.
