This week brought insanity to the Athletics potential move to Las Vegas as the team made some erratic moves following a failure to secure a public financing bill. To begin the week they began once again looking at alternative stadium sites before changing their mind all together and announcing a stadium on the Las Vegas Strip!

How will this new stadium get built, how much money do they want now and which historic Vegas casino will go away as part of this new Athletics deal? We cover it all and tell you why Las Vegas should give no public money for this stadium project. Will anyone listen?
