AC first, then the roof

[@Boombixer]

Agreed. The AC and whatever type of insulation that can be used, need to be implemented on that thing.

[@professorzoom7800]

@@Boombixercan you insulate a roof? probably a dumb question

[@GloveReady]

The longer we wait fixing the AC and Roof the more expensive it's gonna be to fix.

[@professorzoom7800]

i’ll do it. $1,000,000 and season tickets

[@cbkra098]

They destroyed that place by not doing proper maintenance. Really a shame

[@yes.2144]

If we lose our D’Backs I’ll raise hell.

[@loud_laughter]

We won’t. This is propaganda.

Scottsdale/Pima reservation licking their lips right now

[@Skywalkah]

You mean salt river community buddy? The exit off mckellips and the 101 would be doooope..

[@brutesquadbbq2268]

They won’t build on the reservation. The biggest thing they want above all else is an entertainment district surrounding the ballpark that they own so they can have year round income. If they build on the res then the natives will own the surrounding amenities.

I seriously hope Utah never has a winning season in hockey

[@ki2726]

Me too but Coyotes ownership is the biggest reason why they left

[@azcardguy7825]

I have no clue how maricopa county can demand that the team pays for the repairs…. The city owns the stadium…. Seems clear

[@loud_laughter]

I went to a couple games this season. I was there last night. Love the stadium. We If you’re in the 300 section it can get warm when it’s 110+ But it’s inside. Ever been to a stadium outside? You guys are a bunch of spoiled brats. All over the world people get rained on, snowed on, deal with sweltering heat, and humidity, but you want to complain because some of the games are warm. If you want to help the team so much, Mr. Bickley, donate part of your paycheck. Leave mine alone. What stopping you from just writing a check? You said you’d love to be taxed?! Write an effing check! Don’t advocate for me to write one. No one is stopping you from donating to the stadium or the Diamondbacks.

[@TheMW2informer]

Well said, couldn’t agree more. They should try a game at lambeau field.

[@evankeal]

AC was fine when I used to go there for games or lunches, are they not running it like they used to?

[@thebourg]

That would absolutely suck if the Dbacks left and I’m not even a Dbacks fan

[@RobertWilbur-y3x]

And the coyotes owner wanted to pay for it all by himself and they wouldn't sell him the land to do it. D-backs got the a lower lease to do the repairs and they didn't do it.

[@tantaran2007]

I’ll do it

[@marcocano8399]

First time seeing Sarahas face, she’s cute ☺️

[@usmcpound]

no really.

[@matthewumbower7434]

Add a half of percent statewide sales tax for five years to pay for the repairs and upgrades. It would be a greater loss if we lose this team.

[@ronin_1776]

Texans Mickey Mouse ring

[@NiccoDiazDesigns]

Win a world series, and the dbacks would get whatever they want.

[@johnnyraylopez9182]

Move them to the valley. Plenty of room for a new stadium out in the east valley
