Yes, I most certainly have read that. Lots of highly qualified people are watching from the sidelines at this debacle. The first 16 year contract was done to eliminate the 4 separate eagle and man them al 1. now they pulled an end run around the whole dam thing and are playing the same shell game--only with differnt players.
It's a "fraudulent conveyance". Same game Lorenzo played between continental and Eastern. And it's a dam shame. But I do think that they have kicked the old dog too hard. Next 15 months should be interesting.
I got popcorn!
