As and aside, Todd Boehly is taking it in the seat as part owner of the Dodgers.
Hadn't though about Kaplan. I know there are different funding pools, etc. But it's potentially irresponsible to continue on schedule.
Although, if there's no sports...... then you have less juggling for sure of doing things while under construction.
Irresponsible or timed perfectly?
Its unlikely that we WONT have a vaccine within 2 years, so NCAA tourney in 2022 is most certainly ON. Athletics will be suffering. We need the $$$ from a successful basketball team more than ever. The gym will be empty next year. Get it going. When we are allowed to return to normal in 1-2 years, people will be living their best life more than ever. Fun activities every night. Best be ready to give em a show.
I just hope the donors still feel up to it and the money was already set aside long ago.
