Regardless of how you want to spin it the place is going to tank. Whether it is because it was going to tsnk anyway or if the recession killed it or some combination of the two the fact is that there is nothing positive about this project. Even the shills from MGM speak guardedly about the thing.
You called the 150k of gaming space " a major piece of the puzzle" Would you like me to link you to the post you said it in Fred Astaire? LOL

Why do you have such a strong opinion about a project you admittedly don't know a whole lot about? Its interesting to me. And they aren't charging 82 bucks a night. Thats a big part of the problem. The average nightly rate is about twice that and the weekend rate is over 3.5x that.

But what are they going after? Again, success or failure can't be judged in the first quarter.

As far as Dubai World being done, surely you don't think that Kirkorian et al is suddenly broke or creditless. Do you?
