ATLANTA (AP) – Mayor Kasim Reed says there was no way the Atlanta Braves were going to stay in downtown without city taxpayers spending hundreds of millions of dollars.

In a stunning announcement, the Braves said Monday they’re moving in 2017 to a new 42,000-seat, $672 million stadium about 10 miles from downtown in suburban Cobb County, apparently swayed by a lucrative financial package that was just too good to pass up.
Reed said the city couldn’t match a $450 million offer from one of Atlanta’s sprawling northern suburbs.

There are medical supplies, pallets of water and food waiting to be delivered, but of the millions of victims, few have gotten any help yet. And of thousands who mobbed the airport in Tacloban (tahk-LOH’-bahn), only a few hundred were able to board outbound planes.
