So much for transparency.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;One thing I noticed in the article was - Free ad space in local newspapers and air time on local radio stations to promote the game.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;This requirement would have been no problem at all for The Star and other local media. The Star and our talking heads on TV and Radio have never objected to the heavy handed tactics of the Professional Sports establishment in fact they are cheerleaders for it. Perhaps this the reason we were bombarded with all those contrived and hyped &amp;quot;News&amp;quot; Reports on the Stupor Bowl.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I feel fairly certain that even if these demands would have been given to the Star or any of the other McMedia outlets here before the bid, it would not have seen the light of day. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The NFL owners must have good laugh at the sight of government officialdom and the committees crawling across the rug and boot licking begging for the chance to hold the Super Bowl. </content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/12703782/5803128990945356008/comments/default/4693816890228036716'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/12703782/5803128990945356008/comments/default/4693816890228036716'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://advanceindiana.blogspot.com/2014/06/some-light-shined-on-extent-of.html?showComment=1402371457559#c4693816890228036716' title=''/><author><name>Flogger</name><uri>https://www.blogger.com/profile/10383015097067413086</uri><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='https://img1.blogblog.com/img/b16-rounded.gif'/></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://advanceindiana.blogspot.com/2014/06/some-light-shined-on-extent-of.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-5803128990945356008' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/12703782/posts/default/5803128990945356008' type='text/html'/><gd:extendedProperty name="blogger.itemClass" value="pid-239220855"/><gd:extendedProperty name="blogger.displayTime" value="10:37 PM GMT-5"/></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-1614534818297182591</id><published>2014-06-09T22:36:55.001-05:00</published><updated>2014-06-09T22:36:55.001-05:00</updated><title type='text'>...but does Minneapolis have a Cricket field?&#xa;&#xa;I&amp;#...</title><content type='html'>...but does Minneapolis have a Cricket field?&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I&amp;#39;m sure the Super Bowl fans would love a go at it along with the billionaire team-owners.</content><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/12703782/5803128990945356008/comments/default/1614534818297182591'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/12703782/5803128990945356008/comments/default/1614534818297182591'/><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://advanceindiana.blogspot.com/2014/06/some-light-shined-on-extent-of.html?showComment=1402371415001#c1614534818297182591' title=''/><author><name>Anonymous</name><email>noreply@blogger.com</email><gd:image rel='http://schemas.google.com/g/2005#thumbnail' width='16' height='16' src='https://img1.blogblog.com/img/blank.gif'/></author><thr:in-reply-to xmlns:thr='http://purl.org/syndication/thread/1.0' href='http://advanceindiana.blogspot.com/2014/06/some-light-shined-on-extent-of.html' ref='tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-12703782.post-5803128990945356008' source='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/12703782/posts/default/5803128990945356008' type='text/html'/><gd:extendedProperty name="blogger.itemClass" value="pid-1114923450"/><gd:extendedProperty name="blogger.displayTime" value="10:36 PM GMT-5"/></entry></feed>
