The legislation to have MLB reimburse Georgia is one more data point showing that the leagues simply use better lawyers than do cities and states. If there was a contract for MLB to hold the ASG in Cobb County, the tax payers could be reimbursed for a breach. But if I hear an announcement that Acme Dynamite is going to build a new Roadrunner destroying plant next door and I spruce up my Coyote Emergency Vet Clinic in anticipation, I don't get to sue Acme if they decide to relocate to the desert.
We saw a small example of this when Cobb County was shocked - shocked I tell you! - that they were obligated to provide security and police protection at the new stadium, a cost that wasn't included in county budgets as they didn't read the documents closely enough.
"Coyote Emergency Vet Clinic" - chef's kiss.
"Acme Roadrunner Destroying Factory" - when you aim at the prey, you always hit the predator.
