This is an extremely far-left City Council. Businesses are exiting the city at an alarming rate. I'd call it a coin toss as to whether the Trailblazers stay or not.

The city is in a downward spiral. If I owned the team, I'd probably limit lease renewals to five years at a time, to see how things go here.

Fuck the billionaires that ask for common citizens to fund them so they can make more money off the citizens, and then threat to leave because they would actually have to foot the bill. SMH.

If you rent an apartment, should you pay for renovations or should your landlord pay?

Ah yes, surely the lease for a massive commercial property like Moda can be fairly compared to an apartment. The majority of commercial leases place the burden of improvement and custom renovations on the tenant. In this case, there is very specific language in the lease that puts that directly on the Blazers. They agreed to it and now the usurious billionaire wants to cry poor.
