In this job every so often you get a chance to meet "your heroes." One of those recently was the chance to talk to the drummer of The Police - Mr. Stewart Copeland. On this one, I could not hide my fandom.

@bergerdad @AmericanAir Just give them more money. And then more money. That usually helps.

@mitchsmith67 @NathanGraviteh I've covered this for 25 years. I've seen their data. Every time the Stars invest in Tarrant county they don't get the ROI. Hockey is an arena-first business model.
The majority of their fans live in north Dallas & Collin County.
It's the way it is.
