-
SOUNDBITE (English): Joe Carollo, Miami District 3 Commissioner:
"I think it's a good start. But I think once we start in negotiations if this is approved by the voters, it's going to be quite different what we get back. And I'm going to tell you now, you have my vote this go-around but if this passes and we come back it's going to be a different Joe. I'm going to be squeezing you unlike anything you've ever seen for the last penny for the residents of Miami."
SOUNDBITE (English): Jorge Mas, David Beckham's Business Partner:
"Good, a first step, the beginning of bringing this dream to a reality, you know, and I think here among the commission they've seen that this could be something I think unique and iconic that could show Miami's best to the world so I'm very happy and now we've got to get to work."
Q: Did the Marlins just taint this whole experience?
"Absolutely, and they've tainted this community with the amount of mistrust with anything having to do with this type of project - that's why, since the very beginning, I have always said this is to be the anti-Marlins deal and I've tried to do everything in a different fashion, a different way so that hopefully the confidence of the tax payers exhibited in the ballot box in November."
