Submitted for board approval

Phoenix LXX: SHOULD I STAY OR SHOULD I GO

Oh yeeeeeaaaaah

Wooh!

Greg you got to let us know
Should they stay or should they go?
If you say "Stay" we'll be fine
As long as you meet that damn deadline
So you got to let us know
Should they stay or should they go?

Always lease lease lease
You’re happy when it's Bease
One day its verge, next day its track
So if you want us off your back
Well come on and let us know
Should they stay or should they go?

Should they stay or should they go now?
Should they stay or should they go now?
If they go there will be trouble
An’ if they stay it will be double
So come on and let us know!

This indecision’s bugging me
If you don’t want them, set them free
Exactly whom we supposed to believe
Don’t you know which lease even fits me?
Come on and let us know
Should you cool it or should you blow?

Spit!

Should they stay or should they go now?
Should they stay or should they go now?
If they go there will be trouble
An’ if they stay it will be double
So come on and let us know!

Should you own it or should you go?

And sorry Thomas L for usurping your post.

From a source with close ties to NHL ownership on Greg Jamison: "He hasn't raised a dollar."

Poor Greg, coming up just a wee bit short.

I dont believe that, Jamison cant be that much of a liar to go around saying he is this close and such.

Stick around these parts a while, son... you'll lose that innocence and trusting nature soon enough. Everyone involved in this situation from the NHL and CoG on down, and I do mean down, is a scoundrel, liar, and borderline thief. That's how it goes in the desert.

Killion hat off.

Ya I have a hard time buying that one myself. I mean seriously. Whats he going for, the team or a Golden Globe; Best Supporting Actor in a Very Nearly Non-speaking Role? Makes no sense.... but tell ya what, if Campbell's correct and it can be proven, all Hell's gonna break loose.

Should still be good for the next one...

Will this thread even last 24 hours? The other title should be good for then. There's more than enough time. Jamison may have mere hours, but this multi-thread epic has all the time in the world. D-Day is upon us. Doomsday, Decision Day, Delirium Day, Desert Dog Day (these are the dog days of winter are they not?), take your pick.

.... :laugh: ya done me proud Son. You forgot the part about "since 1917" though, followed by the usual canonical recitations.

I'm honoured. :)

Thing is, I'm not even in disagreement or being that sarcastic. This is a story with a bunch of evil antagonists.

Let's see... the shortest thread was Part XXV... 1 day. A few lasted 2 days (Parts I, XVIII, XXIX, LII). This is the Coyotes saga, history can repeat! Let's get to 1000 posts before Jamison even opens his mouth tomorrow!

The best part about this is that 95% (give or take) of people think this ends tomorrow. And it won't.

as someone who has wanted the coyotes to move..this is the first time I feel genuinely sorry for Coyotes fans...no fans should have to put up with this crap...

...so who is going to cover losses for the team while the "mystery group" reworks a lease? I would love to hear Gary Bettman tell the BoG that the team still doesnt have an owner after nearly 4 years and, unlike the past 2 where Glendale was covering losses, now the owners once again have to pay the bills..its like 2010 all over again.
