The Washington Post's Colbert King offers a caustic piece on how stadium deals go down. It's ugly stuff.
Might be kind of fun to sit back and laugh at poor old Washington, DC, if the same thing wouldn't keep happening here.

Reminds me of Bob Cranmer, one of the architects of Plan B, being hired by L. Robert Kimball & Associates, with familial ties to the Rooney family (Mrs. Art Rooney II is a Kimball) and the Pittsburgh Steelers Football Club hiring Cranmer's secretary. Cranmer has absolutely no engineering experience and largely no real experience beyond his one term of being county commissioner. Does anyone really think the hirings are coincidence???
