House Speaker Says "Zero" Chance Bucs Get State Subsidies This Year
Florida Speaker of the House, Richard Corcoran, told me last week that there was "zero" chance the Buccaneers get the roughly $10 million in state subsidies they're seeking for their ongoing Raymond James Stadium renovations, even though they are the only professional team seeking money from the state this year:
Here's more on the "scheme" he's referring to, that made it easier for pro sports teams to get multi-million-dollar tax breaks. Ironically, a conservative legislature has still denied the funding every year since the law changed.
2017 looks to be no different, thanks to Corcoran and some like-minded counterparts of his in the Senate.
