Loria defends self to Miami in full-page add / fantasy fiction:

Bits of self-serving illogic: Loria argues that taxpayer money was not poured into the new stadium, because the county paid from hotel tax. Therefore, argues Loria, visitors paid for most of the ball-park. Obvious question: could that hotel tax have been used for public libraries, roads, railways, or schools?

Nausea-topper? Has to be the last paragraph, where Loria reminds readers: I brought you greatness in 2003! (approximately).

Someone needs to take out a full-page ad reminding people that 2003 was brought to them by John Henry and Dave Dombrowski.
