Quote:But by holding out a casino alternative, the mayor was encouraging both sides to get down to the business of unicorn-free negotiations. Now, in order to work, a casino threat – no, that’s the wrong word – a casino alternative requires credibility. It requires motive.

Fortunately, Gov. Nathan Deal and the Atlanta Hawks have provided. The governor said this week he might let Georgia voters have the final word on casino gambling in a referendum. And the Hawks announced their need for a new or renovated stadium.

Even more cover fire for politicians...

More gambling tax revenue goes toward HOPE.

Sale of Turner Field to the highest bidder helps to fund Hawks new arena.
