As part of the "lying" (by omission or otherwise) group of Minneapolitans 
dedicated to cronyism, special interests and a blurring of the line separating 
Church and state...I encourage our Park Commissioners to continue the process 
with De La Salle and work towards the goal of building the stadium and sports 
facilities on Nicollet Island.

I think the Star Tribune split the issue pretty well.  I can see some 
arguments from those opposed to the plan, I just believe the positives outweigh any 
concerns or alternative goals.

For the most part, I have been frustrated by the attacks made against and by 
both sides of the argument...particularly against, but I just wanted to show 
there was SOME list support for the DLS playing field...in addition to the 
1000+ petitioners and great many other supporters I have discussed this issue with 
across the city.

Also, sidenote: Council Member Colvin Roy, please support (in any way that 
the City Council is now or will be involved) Hennepin County's efforts to build 
the Twins stadium and the DLS playing facilities/stadium.

Kind regards,
Anthony Thompson
