I hope you'll all be really happy when the Twins are
gone from downtown Minneapolis.  Then, we can shoo
away those annoying Vikings, Gophers, and
Timberwolves, because we've got so many more pressing
concerns.  After that, we can quit funding other
cultural amenities like all the theatres downtown.  

Then, when everyone with a dollar in their pocket
looking for some entertainment is forced to go to St.
Paul or the suburbs, we can make downtown Minnapolis a
haven for the homeless and other downtrodden folks. 
We'll have so much tax money to spend on them with
these entertainment venues gone that we can build a
shelter or social services building on every corner. 
Oh wait, you don't think our tax revenues will dip at
all, do you?
