Around SBN: Explaining Jeremy Lin's Early, Surprising Success

Just caught this over at ESPN. Predictably, Bloomberg is annoyed over the subpoena. Interesting snippets from the article:

[Assemblyman] Brodsky has accused city and team officials of secret negotiations that altered property assessments to make the deal legal and to provide a free luxury suite for city officials. Brodsky says the project won't create enough permanent jobs to justify the public funding.

The Yankees are asking for another $259 million in tax-exempt bonds and $111 million in taxable bonds, on top of $940 million in tax-exempt bonds and $25 million in taxable bonds already granted for the $1.3 billion Bronx stadium.

Gotta love the Yankees for building a prohibitively expensive stadium that alienates and exploits their fans.

Kucinich is still on the case, right?

I’d like to see someone get superpoenaed.

Wait, that doesn’t sound right …

Signature to be named later.
