The Glendale Coyotes might move to Phoenix, proper

[MattPie]

I've never heard it unless in reference to the restaurant, Buffalo Proper.

 

I think I've used that before, but it could have been subconsciously after whatever dust-up a few years ago you're talking about.

Perhaps they had that right -- and as Taro said, whether they did have that right will depend on the facts and the law -- but that's not what you said initially.  You said it wasn't fair to criticize the city for walking away from a bad deal made by the prior administration.  That is a much different argument than the illegal-conflict-of-interest argument.

 

 

 

This is also quite possible, and if so then it may have been the right decision by the city -- but it's a fairly Machiavellian and bad-faith decision that certainly deserves criticism.

Perhaps I did not state this correctly. My main problem is that, Glendale's behavior aside, the Coyotes and the NHL are treated like innocent victims in media coverage of this. There is certainly information indicating that Glendale may well have a firm leg to stand on. That being the case, one would think that the question of what exactly went on would be raised. Instead we get "Glendale be Crazy!"

 

I'm definitely glad I don't live and pay taxes there, and perhaps even my suggestion that maybe they're doing the least wrong thing is giving them entirely too much credit. I have to wonder why more questions aren't being asked of the other side though.
