As I said, some teams will benefit (from a cheaper stadium). Others will overpay. LAA's stadium cost $355M, but that was at 60K seating. At 50K seating, it would cost $271M. So, if we're assuming they aren't relocating, it's a better deal. If we are assuming relocation, they overpay a little bit. Either way, I don't think it's worth keeping the current process. Having to pay it all upfront, is no small task and worth cutting people a break. A new stadium should cost a big chunk of money (and $250M+ accomplishes that). After that, arguing over someone saving or over paying ~$25M seems petty.
