The St. Louis Post-Dispatch and its columnists have chosen an excellent day to expound on the need for tax money incentives to sports teams.
While St. Louis city streets collapse:
St. Louis street crews are working to repair a sinkhole that was nearly big enough to swallow a car. City Streets Director Jim Suelman says the hole on Memorial Drive near the Old Cathedral is about five feet in diameter and nearly a foot deep.
Collapsing streets, schools skating the edge of their accreditation, but hey, great sports venues for the suburbanites to enjoy.
