DePaul Purchasing Riverfront Property

[Galway Eagle]

Ok I disagree with this decision as I believe they should've jumped at the United Center arrangement and play the cupcake games at the Ray Meyer Center. In 1981 when Depaul was on top they averaged 15,410 which now days would put them at no13 in national attendance (ahead of us). They are working off of the idea that Depaul can get back to that level so from that perspective it's a good decision. Depaul still is the flagship of Chicago college basketball from an attendance perspective so it makes some sense to try to help them get better and be more attractive.

Stadium also got stuck in the back of the state budget with the crest of the pork projects.

To be honest, I'm pleased that of all the tax dollars I've given to the City of Chicago, some of it will go to a pork project Ill actually use at least once a year.
