He will never make up the $20M he lost due to the injury so he is probably pinching his pennies very carefully.

I'd bet the highest paid pro athlete out of Luers right now is Purple Nurple's progeny.   It'd be nice to have a fundraiser, I'll give a portion.  🙂

Well, his total guarantee as of today is 4.5 million, so I think he will be OK. Bigger one on the horizon.

He only makes 9 million a year.

What's his guaranteed contract?  Heck, what about those guys on the Bengals?  Fort Wayne has a slew in many places now.  A couple of  Fort Wayne families have a near monopoly on paint/air pistol/guns.    Tippman Field.  Tiberius Park.   I'd chip in a share for Luers and Zollner.

They are building a stadium on campus I hear.

It's official they will spend 2 million on the stadium with 2500 seats on the home side and 500 seats on the visitors side. They hope to have it complete before the start of next season.

So, why can't Snider squeeze in a stadium on their land???

They have a field with a track around it and bleachers. The local neighbor around the school won't let them erect any lighting.

That's how it's done in Waco at the stadium shared by the 2 WISD high schools. Lions on one end, Trojans on the other, WISD logo in the middle.

Isn't it some lame parking excuse?  I went to a game at Chatard.  Snider can't say a word if they play at Chatard.

Ok, yes they do have inadequate lighting. I think it's 12 to 16 fixtures a side. Most schools have 12 fixtures on each pole.

I can't remember the specifics I was told when I worked there years ago but my understanding is they can turn them on but they have a curfew when they have to be off or get fined. And that time is so ridiculous it pretty much makes them unusable. I'll see if I can dig up something concrete on it, like on new article.
