Cowboys ask for $425m
The Dallas Cowboys today officially proposed a $650 million stadium at Dallas' Fair Park, including $425 million in public subsidies; Dallas County officials officially told them that's too damn much money. The team wants the county to agree to a stadium plan by June 30; Dallas County Judge Margaret Keliher says it will take at least 90 days just to complete an economic study of the proposal. Said Cowboys vice president Stephen Jones: "We really have something that we can focus on now." That's certainly one way of looking at it.
