Mr. Wilson Takes a Nap

By: Mr. Wilson on October 7, 2009
Sorry for the lame post today. I went up to Sioux Falls yesterday to ref a couple very chilly soccer games and I didn't get back until very late. Mr. Wilson is a tired boy. I do want to make one quick note. Yesterday I emphasized that we need to be skeptical of numbers being thrown around to support the arena and associated development. Today I see that even consultants concede they have no responsibility to tie their numbers to reality: "However, [study author Michael] O'Sullivan acknowledged, consultants are rarely hired to do postproject analysis to see whether their projections were right." Keep those grains of salt handy.
