    No. This one is right on the Strip, where the Tropicana is now.

    It would actually be a hell of a location for a ballpark.

    It's a mile from the "binding agreement" site and as PC noted, right on the Strip.

    If the A's somehow don't move to Vegas, that "binding agreement" phrase will become somewhat infamous.

    If that doesn't work out there's probably a deal to be made for some land at 22nd and Lehigh.

    That church could rake in some big bucks.

    Perhaps the phrase de-binding will come into vogue. Sorta like the kid who signs with Cooterville U, then de-commits.

    "Conscious unbinding?" See also "verbal commitment" when dealing with recruiting.

    That place really, really went south. I'd read an oral history on that [/crossthread]
