    NATIONAL FOOTBALL LEAGUE {Appendix 3, to Sports Facility Reports, Volume 17} Research completed as of July 24, 2016 Arizona Cardinals Principal Owner: William Bidwell Year Established: 1898 Team Website Twitter: @AZCardinals Most Recent Purchase Price ($/Mil): $.05 (1932) Current Value ($/Mil): $1,540 Percent Change From Last Year: 54% Stadium: University of Phoenix Stadium Date Built: 2006 Facility Cost ($/Mil): $455 Percentage of Stadium Publicly Financed: 76% Facility Financing: The Arizona Sports & Tourism Authority contributed $346 million, most of which came from a 1% hotel/motel tax, a 3.25% car rental tax, and a stadium-related sales tax. The Arizona Cardinals contributed $109 million. The Cardinals purchased the land for the stadium for $18.5 million. Facility Website Twitter: @UOPXStadium UPDATE: Following the previous summer’s ruling from the Maricopa County Superior Court that the rental car tax was unconstitutional, the court has ruled the state must refund the rental car tax previously collected. The refunds could cost the State approximately $160 million. This would likely reduce the funding the Arizona Sports and Tourism Authority receives from the State to use toward debt payments on the University of Phoenix Stadium. In June 2016, the University of Phoenix Stadium upgraded the sound system throughout the arena. Featuring state-of-the-art technology, the upgrade was funded by the Arizona Cardinals. © Copyright 2016, National Sports Law Institute of Marquette University Law School Page 1 On January 11, 2016, the University of Phoenix Stadium hosted the 2016 College Football Playoff National Championship Game.

  • Giants-Jets Postgame Notes by Michael Eisen EAST
    Giants-Jets Postgame Notes By Michael Eisen EAST RUTHERFORD, N.J. – When Mike Glennon entered the NFL in 2013, most coaches followed a familiar plan for deploying their personnel in the preseason: play the starters for a couple of series in the first game, a little more in the second, past halftime in the third and not at all in the fourth contest. And now? “I feel like since I got in the league, the whole trajectory has changed,” Glennon said. It did for Glennon Saturday night when the Giants opened their preseason against the Jets. Coach Joe Judge sat almost all his starters, including Daniel Jones, so No. 2 quarterback Glennon started the game along with numerous other backups. He played three series in the Giants’ 12-7 loss in MetLife Stadium. The Giants have two preseason games remaining, at Cleveland and against New England, and Judge has indicated Jones and the first teams will get their heaviest workload against the Patriots. “It used to be everything built up to the third game and then it started a couple of years ago, it was like no one played anymore,” said Glennon, who completed three of seven passes for 20 yards. “Now it seems like maybe teams are treating the first game like the fourth game and the third game like the third games – I don't know. You guys have probably been around long enough to see the same thing, so I don't know what the plan is. But yeah, it felt kind of more like a fourth, which is weird, but we'll see.
