If San Diego voters had approved “Soccer City” in 2018, destruction loomed.
Workers in Mission Valley would’ve reduced the old football stadium to rubble.
In Florida an old football coach would’ve shed no tears, I’d wager. Don Shula, given the chance, may have blown up the stadium himself, smiling, his square jaw jutting, The Murph defeated, for good and good riddance.
Shula, who died Monday at age 90, expected to win wherever he was, because winning is what he did. His teams won 347 games, including the postseason, the most of any NFL coach. He went to six Super Bowls, winning twice.
