Juraez says Hansen was given a free pass by the press through it all.
“The media created this fiction (about him),” she said, “There was no team. There was no arena. They were not shovel ready.
Juarez says it didn’t help because Hansen was always missing a vital part of the equation.
“A deal was a deal. Mr. Hansen did not come up with a team. Nobody wants to hold Mr. Hansen to what he was supposed to deliver,” Juarez said “Had Mr. Hansen come forward with a basketball team, that would have been a completely different -– pardon the pun –- ballgame. But he didn’t. It was a failed MOU, and the city did not fail. Mr. Hansen did.”
Ok....
But now she's talking about her precious Key Arena MOU....
They voted 7-1 to approve the MOU on Monday.
Juarez says she’s not going to promise an NHL team or NBA team will play in the building because, “It would be hypocritical of me to say that is true,” with a “pretend team in a pretend arena.”
Uuummmm, am I missing something here?
Double standard?
Still to this day it's like she doesnt understand the SodoArena MOU was just to be shovel ready when a team was acquired. She held them to a higher standard than the KeyArena. Which she admits they might never get a team.
It failed b/c they refused to give up a 1 block dead end alley. God she's infuriating.
