Quality baseball will peak interest here for about two weeks. Then, the honeymoon'll be over.
What the hell kind of "mixed use" can you get out of a baseball field anyway? Water slide down the third base line? Internet cafes in the dugouts?
To make a profit with a AAA baseball team, you need butts in seats. The 775 just can't pull that off . We can't even support the teams already here. Besides, where you gonna put it?
Downtown Reno? Crappy Parking.
Sparks Marina? Renoites would commit seppuku.
There just aren't enough people in the 775 who'll drive to WHEREVER to see minor league baseball. Haiku says it all.
Where to build the park?
five thousand people needed
profits will be nil
