Stallion, what you are saying is right. You have to sign the deal the moment it is done. You can't let Orsini get on a plane without his signature. That would have been crazy.
But SMU could have signed the deal and had a press event on Monday. I am not even saying you can't announce it, I am just saying the press event didn't have to be at a time when it would get drowned out by other events, which it pretty much was.
I wasn't wrong, I was slow. And unless I was talking to Turner, I couldn't have talked to the right guy. I was just doing the best I could to fill a void of information. If you want, I will give you your money back.
