  3. ppl need to realize not a single person in the state of florida wants the rays in st pete. nobody, they need to move the team to tampa or relocate elsewhere it is embarrassing

  4. If Stu had done things right, they would have made a deal to move to Tampa years ago and we would be putting the finishing touches on a new stadium as we speak. I think their original deal with St Pete was supposed to run out in 2027. This is why people have lost patience with Stu. You would assume he wants to move to Tampa but Stu needs to close a land development deal and screw the city on his way out.

  5. "won't be able to build it in time"

    This is the same sudden excuse John Fisher and Dave Kaval used when they suddenly walked out of negotiations with Oakland.

    They're using the A's playbook to get out of the deal.

  7. Sternberg, Fisher, and Nutting are bad for MLB and they are greedy profiteers. Pohlad might be in there as well. Teams should privately fund these stadiums. (Utah says "come visit")

  9. If anyone is going to own a sports franchise, they should meet the payroll requirements instead of being cheap. Perhaps Sternberg should offer a share to the Glazer family who own the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. Or any local businessman.

  10. I like the fact that St. Pete is playing hardball with this greedy owner. Sternberg would leave the Tampa area if it were just that easy but it ain't.

    Remember MLB gave Tampa Bay a team because of what George Steinbrenner(a Tampa resident) did for baseball.

  11. Hey Brodie! Small thing but as a news reporter in my first market (Tallahassee), your conversational style of speaking is a huge inspiration for me. You definitely have a broadcaster voice as well! I do my best to emulate it and not sound so reporter-like in my packages. (my reel is on my channel, I always appreciate feedback 😁)

    p.s. I’m also a Tampa Bay boy, this coverage is how I found you!

    and yes covering hurricanes (Helene especially here in north FL) are exactly as stressful as you think!

  12. The big mistake was to locate an MLB team in a city that does not really care about the team and is not large enough to economically support the team. Rays know this and should have just decided to move and not put on this charade to appear like their care about St. Pete and want to stay. (I reach this opinion having lived in St. Pete for 13 months in 2014-5.)

  13. The city and county have done what they agreed to do and will not do more. If the Rays don't like that then they can walk away, but they lose all development rights to the land.

  14. The Rays have nowhere to go, but the parking lot of Tropicana Field. Neither Nashville or Charlotte or Raleigh can afford a new 1.8 billion baseball stadium. Austin has no real interest. Portland ain't happening. Orlando is fine with what teams and attractions they have. Tampa already called their bluff.

  22. If I'm Manfred I would move Tampa Bay Rays to the Alamodome and have them become the San Antonio Rays and they then play in the National League West. This would be made possible by swapping the leagues of the Colorado Rockies and the Rays so in the end the Rockies would play in the American League West.

  23. As a fan in Pinellas… The local media really has played things safe. They don't investigate or deep dive on the owners / political figures by performing interviews or seeking statements.

    i think the Internet investigative journalists such as yourself have done far more and provide greater perspective.

    The local person in Tampa that does BB style coverage is JP Peterson. Also worked for the Lightning like Brodie the Sharks… Probably would be an excellent crossover pod or segment down the road. But he has had Latvala on a few times and it's been insightful. Good coverage of the Rays.

    Point is the best coverage is through new media from reputable sources that have a little background and gumption from the past.

  25. New Stadiums are a wasted of resources. The fact that hurricanes can cause this much damage and confusion. They should just renovate the hell out of Tropicana and play in a minor league ballpark in the meantime.
