| Continue to support University of Arizona athletics and seek to attract more professional or semi-professional sports teams and sporting events |
| |
| | "As a former athlete and UA graduate I am proud of our athletic programs and coaches. I expect the UA to continue to be an outstanding institution in Arizona and the Pac 10." |
| | "My family has now been in Tucson for five generations. My children are growing up in a community that cherishes its rich Hispanic history. The University of Arizona has played an important part in my family's history. The Tellez family consists of alumni, but most importantly, 'die-hard' supporters of Wildcat sports." |
| | "I love attending and watching the U of A sports and other school related activities." |
| | "We need to attract a Triple A franchise to Tucson and to bring more people to downtown Tucson. A baseball stadium with either downtown or mountain views will bring around 10,000 people to downtown Tucson." |
| | "Tucson is a great place to play and get involved in sports. Especially to watch. There is no reason we shouldn�t be able to support a minor league baseball team, spring training, horse racing, etc." |
| | "Bring back baseball teams." |
| | "Bring back major golf tournaments." |
| | "I believe there could be more tournaments throughout the city that bring in southern Arizona teams to play in Tucson. Most tournaments are held in either Phoenix or out of state. It is difficult for these teams to find places to play." |
| | "I loved attending spring training games. If done correctly, these ventures should generate jobs and income for Tucson." |
| | "Spring training � it puts Tucson on the map as a desirable winter vacation destination." |
