We feel we're in good shape. Even in the worst-case scenario, we should be okay.
among basically both conference five four parity potential season teams though tough
Even though we are basically young, I feel both teams have the potential to end the season with at least a .500 record. There's a lot of parity among the 12 teams in the conference. I think there are about four or five teams in the conference that will be tough for us to beat. But I feel we will be very competitive during the meets.

We think we'll be in a spot within a week or so, maybe two weeks tops, where the Council will have had time to look at it and approve it. Our thought is shortly after that we'll be able to pull the trigger and start building the new stadium, which is what everybody's been hoping we'd do all along.

area built city cost included upgrade
When we built the MCI Center, if we had included every little thing we did to upgrade the area into the cost of MCI, it would be in the billions. You have to think of it just as city development.
claim confident hand people rather
We're just not there yet. There are some people who feel a little more confident in saying. I'd rather have it hand before I claim that we've got a deal.
continue office partner process
We've been working with the CFO's office during this whole process and we will continue to do so. If he was not briefed before the change, it was an oversight. He's an important partner in this.
anyone arranged deal integrity issue itself undermine
As long as we don't undermine the integrity of the lease itself and the deal that we've arranged with the construction agreement, then I don't think anyone would have an issue with it.
decided mainly save time
There was a time during the negotiations where we thought we were going to take it out, mainly to save money. It's not decided for sure.
