Golfin' Fools

Some of Houston's avid golfers have tried to drum up opposition to the BSL proposal. Lee Gordon, a gadfly whose tirades against the Sharpstown and Brock giveaway helped embarrass the administration into killing it, says he can't understand the logic behind the city's latest golfing saga.

"Why does the city have to give this property to someone else," he asks, "when we can make the same money off it by managing it ourselves?"

Maybe Bill Smith can explain.
