This is not old but more a clarification of the situation. The "approved" stamp hadn't been eluded to before Maske's column. Upshaw has a good relationship with the Post adn Maske so I am guessing this is the first anyone has heard of that. That is promising that the deal is "approved" by the management council. Gives it a better shot of getting ratified by the owners in gemeral. All they need is 24 votes and I would guess based on previous reports they are somewhere in the neighborhood of 22 votes strong with 10 being opposed based on revenue sharing issues. It was reported that Snyder was willing to bend a little to get a deal done so maybe that's 23 and I would bet at least one other guy will blink too. Cross fingers that this gets done.
