Reporter how quickly things change, just a few months ago county supervisors were optimistic about a potential sale of chase field to private investors in order to renovate the 18yearold ballpark, but now those investors are backing out of the deal and pointing the blame directly at the diamondbacks. In county board of supervisors, they called the teams 117 million estimate greatly exaggerated, and they say on numerous occasions the diamondbacks refused to meet with them. The team responded late tonight saying they are offended at the notion that they are being uncooperative in the process and that the group wasnt being forthcoming about basic information regarding the sale. They also say the price tag for and right now the county is still on the hook for the lease of chase field lasting through 2020. They say they will continue to honor the deal.

He wants perfect execution, and if things are not going well, like last week, a couple of things broke down, he jumps on guys. Thats just who he is. Appears coach moore will oversee duties. Hell address the team, and each coach that runs their units, coach amos, coach cuddy and coach betz addressed the units individually.

Last week, i looked up at the lamp post and it was having a meal at the top of a lamp post at the end of the street. Around 9 30 this morning, becky heard some noise in her backyard. When she went outside, she found this hawk in her birds cage. She says the hawk was caught by the foot, but every opening to the cage was still closed. It was amazement. It was like, youre houdini. How the heck did you get in there . It was all closed up. It was stuck by foot at the top door here, and later it got free when he got his foot unstuck. Birds, petey and snowy. Unfortunately petey didnt survive the attack. Griefer didnt hesitate, even with the hawk inside the cage. I just undid the cage and slipped my hand in real quick and got her. I never had any contact with the hawk at all. Petey was griefers sons bird, and although they will never replace her, they hope there were some tears, but he didnt go overboard or anything. It will take him a little while to get used to the idea, but we know how the natural life around here lives, and we appreciate it quite a lot, where you see them flying around the fields every once in a while, and im always really grateful to be able to experience that.
