I mean okay, but in the even in situation that the Jags leave Jacksonville, wouldn't the city still want to develop downtown?

I feel like a lot of people are missing the point. If the city and people don't think downtown development is important or will work no matter what, then okay do something elsewhere. 

But if they want downtown developed, you will have to take on some risk no matter. Any developer will expect some greasing and "favors" because downtown Jax has not shown the momentum to drive that on its own.
