Paul Edgerley dropped $5 mill in a donation to the business dept.


Also, somewhere T Boone is sitting back with a cohiba and a glass of scotch, laughing to himself and saying "that's IT?!?!"

While not broke, Pick is not exactly swimming in money right now.  He's getting a little senile in his old age.

I'm confused, can we start building the facility sooner than expected or do we still have some $ to collect?

I'm hoping some of that $5 million was a commitment to remove Ebadi.

I'm guessing they've known about this for a while so we probably aren't any further ahead than we were when they announced it, now we just know who gave a portion of the funds to get the ball rolling.

Agreed.  They had a couple of weeks in there where the grassroots folks were feverishly donating small sums of money to get the 2.5-3 million needed to begin construction.  There wouldn't have been that sense of urgency had the large donation been announced.

Now they can spend every televised broadcast talking about the new practice facility that will be breaking ground soon.

We've finally got some pros running the show.  Feels good.
