    With all the consternation about parking and walking, I mapped out my usual route for Longhorn game day. It’s 1.5 miles from the lot to the stadium. And it never seems all that bad. I don’t know why opponents refused to acknowledge how many similar situations there are with events all over town.
  2. But Susan Spataro assured me that Mr Epstein was the one person who really cared about soccer in Austin and would ensure that fans had a first class experience!

    Great night at Haymaker. Flannigan, Pio and the Mayor all showed up. I've bro-hugged Jimmy like 30 times today. Legit work in terms of site plans, architectural, engineering, etc. starts in earnest tomorrow.

    I love everyone right now. Particularly Jimmy Flannigan.

    I think Tovo is the last speaker.

    Alter concluding now. Or nowish.

    Not yet. Pool climbing off the soapbox. Alter up now.

    Yup. In the back w the MLS in Austin gang. Does Pool know that there’s a “T” on the end of Precourt?

    Sooooooooo close. Let’s just stop talking and vote.

    Gotta mitigate. Such a pointless discussion.

    This is the truest statement of this entire painful ordeal.

    Flannigan also compared her to the state senator who went to Russia to tell them to stop meddling in our elections. He seems very put out by the process.

    “I’m disappointed and confused that an Austin elected official would seemingly care more about the perspective of soccer fans in Columbus compared to the city she’s elected to represent,” said Ensign, who accused Pool during the City Council meeting last Thursday of “stall tactics “I’m confused looking at some of her comments in the last week about wanting to remove the emotions from this argument and look more at the numbers, then she’s quoted in this Dispatch article talking about the emotional impact in Columbus.”

    No need. Some of us are going down just to see the show, and see it through to completion after ten months, but there’s not a role for the public. Supporters group meetup @ Haymaker on Wednesday evening to celebrate or drown our sorrows.

    And to make sure that there are an equivalent number of male and female racers at each event. To your question about amendments, there shouldn’t be any more, but I’m not certain about anything.

    Excellent amendment analysis here. https://www.estadiomckalla.com/2018/08/amendments-from-in-flux-vote-council-members/
  20. That efficiency audit seems pretty politically motivated, but also a good idea. I didn’t know much about it, but watched the dicussion last night for almost an hour after soccer was done.

    I really wish this guy would run against her: https://www.mystatesman.com/news/opinion/commentary-mls-austin-could-open-the-door-civic-opportunities/pP7xt1OH2akaH7LOhPLhpN/

    Wednesday is not going to be a problem. Pool really sucks. Adler having to describe what a poison pill is to her right now. I think Jimmy should have an open mic to respond to everything that Pool and Alter say about everything. Would make all Council sessions must-see TV.

    Supporters group showed up strong and called out Pool. Feeling very, very good right now.

    67 in favor and 35 against among city hall registrants right now.

    Some of us have gathered enough dirt to both win this thing tomorrow and make things very difficult on other soccer operations outside the city limits through this process. Some groups may have overplayed their hand and alienated the entire soccer community.
