Cape Cod's Mashpee Wampanoag Tribe, gearing up for Casino

Wampanoag Tribal Chairman, Glenn Marshall of Mashpee came to Middleboro to answer questions about the proposed casino plans, to a sardine packed auditorium, filled with Middleboro residence. After leaving the informational only meeting on 5/22/07 on whether Middleboro was going to host a casino or not.

My personal opinion is that the casino is more likely to come than not and I think Middleboro should negotiate in the towns best interest with the Wampanoag's as soon as possible. My biggest surprise at the meeting was that the older people that have been around town the longest seemed more favorable to the casino then the younger "implants" for lack of a better term. Of course this observation was made with just the people that I spoke and/or heard from, but still I found it surprising. My crystal ball tells me in two years I'll be out on Precinct Street sitting at a black jack table and saying wow, it took me a lot less travel time to get here! After all, "if you build it they ( I ) will come."

What do you think? I would love to know!
