Ya know…. I really do hate to say I told you so… but… well.. I did. That stadium was a terrible idea..and its going to be a total disaster for Gwinnett.
This one is on Bert and the entire Gwinnett Board at the time. The citizens of Gwinnett are on the hook for something they never had any say in.
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution has been investigating claims about the public benefits of the Gwinnett Braves stadium since Gwinnett County officials unveiled the project in 2008. Although Gwinnett officials vowed the stadium would pay for itself, last September we reported the county is still struggling to find money to repay the $33 million stadium debt.

About Woody Bass
Woody Bass is a freelance blogger who writes about politics, current events and generally anything he finds ignorant, stupid or totally out of line. There is nothing he wont say or write about so long as it is the truth and what he truly believes - with a few smartass remarks thrown in for good measure. Smart ass is what Woody does best. Don’t go looking for any extreme “right” or “leftist” thinking though. Woody is able to step back, look at the “big picture” and provide a moderate/centrist observation on the matter.
Woody was formerly a blogger for the Atlanta Journal Constitution - Gwinnett News for 3 years. http://www.ajc.com/yournorcross
Woody was born in Orlando, Florida and moved to Atlanta, Georgia in 1986. He is a ‘rabid Gator fan’ and loves nothing more than to annoy as many fans of “that team from Athens, Ga” as possible.
