Passing on VY doomed this franchise. You can't pass on a pro bowl qb.

This type of corporatism is pretty much par for the course these days, from DC on down to localities.

Welcome to bailout nation and public/private partnerships. The one thing you can be sure of is your tax dollars being used (sorry, "invested") for the benefit of someone else.

Okay, but isn't the stadium itself part of the franchise value? I remember right after McNair was awarded the franchise the Chron said it was worth a billion dollars: $700 mm franchise fee + $300 mm stadium.

Retracted: Harris County owns land, third party operates so Texans just a tenant I guess.
