COG had delusions of grandeur. They thought that if they built a hockey arena and spring training facilities it would put Glendale on the map, in the same ballpark, so to speak, as Scottsdale and Phoenix. Glendale screwed itself.
Without dredging up the exceedingly dead horse that makes even the Dave Tippett debate look fresh and whimsical, I'll just say that Scottsdale was already smart enough to tell the Coyotes to pound sand rather than pony up the bucks for an arena. In retrospect they appear to be wiser than us all. Hopefully they'll stay smart and not offer the Mutts a dime.
