Gophers stadium?

Of all the stadia proposals out there, the only one I feel I can give any support to is a stadium for the Gophers. The U of M is a public institution, they aren't going anywhere, and the football team does not consist of overpaid whiners. Plus, Big Ten universities need big outdoor stadiums. So if a plan gets done this year, I would have no problem with it.

Plus, the latest plan involves a land swap that would result in land being given to the DNR for preservation amidst a sea of expanding suburbia. That's a good thing. If the U of M keeps this up (as opposed to a PR campaign full of threats and hyperbole), then they may be the only stadium winner this year.
