Smile: $1.25 million donation for the stadium

I could be wrong, but I believe an existing donor and Owl Club member owns that company. Instead of making this donation in his name, it looks like he made the donation in the name of the company.

Tax write off.

I think 2009 is out of the picture. I think the focus is just getting it built now.

We have until late April per HS…

Yeah, but with the economy the way it is, and the slow donations to date, I think the focus has changed from 2009 to just getting it built period.

I am not sure how large a company Smile Xpress is…but if they can write a check for $1.25 million, it has to be easy for a large company like Office Depot to write a check for $5 million.

Teambeer is the most knowledgeable FAU sports fan I know, way smarter than me.

I still think Tyco, its literally on the other side of 95 and is a massive company.  ADT is only a small piece of their puzzle.
