Promises, promises

The Anaheim city council is scheduled to meet tomorrow to discuss building a stadium for an NFL team, but local officials swear they've learned their lesson after being spurned by the Rams and the Seattle Seahawks. "We realize it's not the end of the world not to have an NFL team," City Attorney Jack White told the Orange County Register. (He then utterly failed to launch into a blistering guitar solo.) "We want to facilitate them coming if they want to come, and yet we're not going to finance a stadium for them." Um-hm. Be sure to bookmark this quote for future reference once a stadium plan actually emerges.
