Honestly don't know and yes to a point everything has some help but it seems like football stadiums given their single purpose and cost for 11 games make it impossible for a private funding.

I kind of get the idea that baseball is not a typical business. I would say the revenues produced by baseball should be put back in the team to the players and other team investments. I think most teams due this today. Leave their other money in the trucking and law firms you mention.
