Do you work in the area of graphic design of logos and the such? Didn't think so. Petey, on this topic, is far more knowledgeable than me and you. His opinion in this field, which is his expertise, is an objective standard based on his business in the region he works, designs and sells. If his objective standard was trash, like the logo, his business wouldn't be in business anymore.

No argument with that.....but if the numbers extrapolated out over years for what Kennedy is pushing for vs losing the Foundation altogether don't make sense.......but he is a businessman. Maybe he's asking for UND to have total control over everything the Foundation is associated with plus wanting a minimum of $10M from them a year?

I knew the numbers but we squabbling over a few hundred thousand in FB revenue yearly vs. losing potentially millions from a donor? I get both sides of the argument but for the sake of Warren Buffet Kennedy needs to push a pencil here. This is an oversimplification but kind of make one go..."hmmmmmmmmmmm". The FB program is a long ways away from being a cash cow for UND.

Someone smarter than me calculate the gross revenue if every seat was sold for every FB game next year at the Al. Be generous with concession sales and miscellaneous sales and present us with one number that the university is losing revenue wise due to the Foundation thieves. I'm serious.....and curious.

I avoid fast food restaurant bathrooms and Chinese restaurant kitchens

.......and UND would never see another penny from that Foundation. Brilliant!

Correct.......that is why I speak 5 different languages. Always me to be a star at Taco Bell and a Chinese buffet.

Don't complicate it for him

The premises is any dollars the Foundation pillages from the University it is required to return it times 10 annually. You missed that memo.

Still wrapping my head around your "losing millions" theory...........

Stop........it all goes to buying more Hilter memorabilia.

That's a great idea............

Go ahead........just leave enough money before you leave so UND can buy a new one!

Factor in the profit from the sales of all the FH gear UND is raking in and Kennedy will announce this fall plans to break ground on a new on campus FB stadium.

#hostagecrisis

Not disagreeing but if they take thousands yet give back millions is UND still losing and being held hostage? Not good at math but more zeros trump less zeros.

Sensing a theme here recently........ attitude of ungratefulness for the dollars given in the past by the Foundation yet there's a hostage crisis on our university now because the Foundation hasn't given enough lately. Did I miss anything else?

Always easy to spend someone else's money........

Got it Mr. Jung Un.

Euro hater....

Valid question but for one she holds the pen..............................................

Never said he needed to negotiate in public but the "I don't recall" bit doesn't hold water. I have a hard time believing McGarry would make something up that Kennedy allegedly said negatively about her father Ralph or threatening to pulling the BB teams out of the Betty.

You are giving Kennedy a complete pass. He has not refuted one conversation McGarry has mentioned publically. Maybe she feels he is a prick and doesn't want to go into further negotiations based on his lack of professionalism and leadership?

I'd be up for that.

I'm waiting for some here to give Kennedy credit for getting the 3 American hostages freed from North Korea too........................................
