>>>>>>So what are the odds it gets approved, doesn't get approved, and/or  
the CWS goes somewhere else besides Omaha?

90% / 8% / 2%

Fahey's got a good amount of votes on the council already.  So I really
doubt anything else is going to happen.  The CWS has stated (regardless of
this new stadium) that they DO NOT want to move it anywhere else.  The
SaveRosenblatt group has a signed document from the NCAA that they didn't
initiate any discussions about the new stadium and that was not a
requirement to extending the contract.

Now, building the new stadium will (hopefully) get a really long deal out of
the NCAA (20 min, 25 hopefully and 30 year would be great).  However, some
believe that the NCAA would have done a longer deal with much less expensive
changes to Rosenblatt (Somewhere around $50 mil).
