Braves exec: ‘It’s just very narrow minded to say’ that the Braves shouldn’t get a tax exemption
Braves VP criticizes the criticism that the Braves have received for wanting more public cash for its stadium
“I think it’s just very narrow minded to say, ‘Oh, why should they be able to take that money out of the public?’ We’re putting a lot more into the public, and that’s I think the flaw in some of the rhetoric is that there’s no recognition for that.”
