Would you publicly fund another stadium or let the franchise leave Cincinnati?

I also don't live in Hamilton county.

I dont think ownership will change in the near future with the Bengals. Even when Mike dies, I think Katie takes over and it will always stay in the family. 

Regarding the stadium, a new one being built is not that far away. The current one is about 17 years old.

To put that in perspective, Lucas Oil was OPENED in 2008. That means by roughly 2006, it was agreed upon and construction was just under way. 

The RCA Dome (where the Colts formerly played) was built in 1984. So that means it had a lifespan of about 20-22 years.
