That's the issue though. They screwed up in the marketing of the deal. They threw out a huge number. Then they say the team has to leave for 2 years. Then they add an entertainment district that they want some money for but Khan has ownership.

They needed to come with funding sources identified. The entertainment district alone could have covered a lot of the money with revenue sharing if the city covers the move upfront instead of covering the stadium. If you split everything 50/50, I'm sure the numbers will be a lot more manageable when the revenue is added in. Then sell ownership to Khan after the fact for the entertainment district after they recover costs if they want.

No one marketed a "deal"

They floated a concept that would appease the league, the fans, and the owners. 

Now they have to get the city and the taxpayers on board. 

No one knows what the entertainment district money can do for both parties as it hasn't even been negotiated yet. 
They announced the start of a negotiation a few days ago and carved out a whole year to negotiate. 

Folks should chill with all the assumptions.
