Where is my Spurs Ring or Trophy?

How much time do those trophies spend in the Courthouse or City Hall? Last one I went out of town, no one asked to see any of my five NBA Championship rings.

Who really benefits from the tax money that subsidizes the Spurs?


I feel like Spurs fanboys are like real estate agents trying to sell me a house with a pool when what I really want is a house in a safe neighborhood and a working air conditioner.

---

You know what's funny? The Spurs paid for and gave away 20k rings to fans after the won the title.

You couldn't even whine without being wrong.

---

Rings went to fans who happened to buy tickets at one specific game. Didn't go to taxpayers that subsidize the building they venue where they work. Somewhere I have a Patty Mills bobblehead doll too. They are probably of similar value. Woo, what a trophy.

Does he even still play for them?

TxDOT will probably be more cooperative crossing that ROW with a pedestrian land bridge than a pedestrian tunnel. Just my experience dealing with them.

TXDOT hates the idea.
And I'm glad they do.
I don't want a dime of taxpayer money to pay for this.
Let the Spurs go to Austin.
Sick of being held hostage.

Where do you get the idea that TXDOT hates the land bridge idea when they have already built it in Dallas and are currently in the process of planning/building one in Austin?

---

Because I know people.
That's the best you're gonna get out of me.
Believe me or not, makes no difference to me.

Sure I believe you that you know some people within TXDOT who don't like land bridges. But it's obvious that they have little to no influence on what actually gets decided at TXDOT since they have moved forward with building the land bridges in Dallas and Austin. So in the end to use you own words, what you have said so far really makes no difference to me and the outcome of this aspect of Project Marvel since the people you know don't make the big boy decisions. That will ultimately most likely come down to locals when it comes up for a bond vote to help pay for the bridge.

You're aware that TXDOT is divided into districts, yes?
You're aware that those districts make decisions independently of other districts, yes?

Edit: you have no idea who I know in TXDOT or what roles they serve. Turn down the "smug" a bit.

Our new socialist mayor who checks all the boxes doesn't seem to be a fan of the project.

$5 billion, and we can't even get Skyrides out of the deal? That's what SA needs.
