    Wow that's fast! I wonder why he didn't provide the appropriate text to you for your convenience. Where the heck are you going to get a copy of the Sports Business Journal?

    I wonder how many emails he got over that and if gip and JO'Co will get the exact same email.

    I tried to verify his explaination. I even signed up for a free trial subscription but even that wouldn't allow access to archived items. I give up.

    Here is the latest in my correspondence with my new best friend. Let me preface the email exchange below by saying that I made a gut decision after re-reading the Tennessee column to give Mr. Livengood the benefit of the doubt. IMO, the fact that they read then misspelled his name made a case for them playing fast and loose with the facts. I also had signed up for a trial subscription to SBJ, but only full subscribers are allowed access to the archived articles. Given all the circumstances and his impressive background, I chose to accept his explanation, which in turn required me to eat a bit of humble pie, something I need to do occasionally to keep myself balanced and not susceptible to my evil temper.

    Here is my follow-up reply to his earlier reply:
    Here is his reply to the above email:
    There. As far as I'm concerned it's over. Of course, if I'm in Tuscon and looking for tickets to an AZ football or basketball game, I'll call my new best friend Jim. Eat your heart out, Rick. :lol: :lol: :lol:
