John Heisler Quotations

It's going to be a year-to-year thing. It's certainly not going to be anything that jeopardizes games in the fall, but some of the questions are: where and when the work is going to be done and what's our ability to accommodate fans in the spring?

Does anybody do that anymore? They don't, and there's probably some good reasons for that.

There still may be some way that this can be timed and structured where we could still play at home. But I guess at this point there's no guarantee. I think one consideration would be if there was work going on at one side of the stadium, would there be a way to seat people on the other side? I'm not sure we have any answers yet.

With these other events, there's a commodity of some sort. We're running a Web site as well, so we would like to drive traffic there. Our feeling is, particularly in terms of a press conference, everybody is welcome to cover it, but if you want to see the full-blown transcription or if you want to watch the whole thing, then our site ought to be the place to find that.

The five places we've had the most conversations about and also had people from those sites wanting to talk to us have been Jacksonville, Orlando, Tampa, Dallas and New Orleans. I think when (athletic director) Kevin White has been talking about sites and years, he was talking philosophically. There are no deals in place yet. We've got some work to do.

We are very familiar with the phone number of our general counsel.

In a lot of previous cases, we did things more informally. There wasn't this great concern that the information was inaccurate. It just didn't enter your mind.
