The Tigue is a special place

Didn't say that. Lemoine can be dragging their feet and still be telling the truth technically

But they would still be lying to robe about the progress...or lack thereof....in all those weekly meetings Robe talked about in the interview, right?
BTW, my neighbor said he happened to be on the same flight home as SF Wednesday. So I'm sure we will be hearing from him shortly. Lol.

People keep saying "if" this and "if" that.. "If" is happening right in front of you guys. We told y'all this was happening a month ago. What's so hard to understand about it?

Farmer, Savoie, Stewart.. Any of them could have said ANYTHING to quiet the concerns. Stewart and Farmer are regulars on 1420. Why no "stop in" to calm the masses? Why not send out an email JUST TO THOSE who donated directly to the Tigue project to fill valued donors in on what's up?

Easy stuff could have been done, even for those that don't have access to certain conversations.

Why are y'all still in denial??

Someone called into Jays show Thursday and when Jay let him through, he asked "Am I on the air?" When told yes, he said "Oh, I'll call back later."

IMO it sounded like Stewart. It was strange.

LOL....I just stated why/how I'm basing my beliefs: Robes interview.
I'm truly not trying to be argumentative, but please tell me where I'm wrong in believing in Robe's words. And if you're telling me that he is lying or covering up something to save his bosses....sorry I don't believe that. Again....he could've dodged that easily enough.

And I'm basing what I'm saying off a lot more than robes interview. I'm not speaking hypothetically on this. No I'm not gonna name sources but I'm telling you nothing about what is going on was ever the plan or at all normal delays or circumstances. This is an extremely time sensitive project, I don't care about what has happened on other projects...we have a short period of time to build a stadium to hold people with one of our best teams in years and they have royally screwed the pooch....if everything would have went according to their lie we still would have probably played first couple weeks not at the tigue...now 5 weeks later here we are.

Ok...honestly I'm not even sure anymore what the issues are that you guys have heard. What are they exactly? And I'm not asking you for sources. Do we have the money now, but not enough? Was/how was the funding mishandled, etc.?
And please tell me if you think Robe was giving us misinformation because he is shielding his bosses, or if he is in the dark. And is Lemonie giving him false info about the delays, or is that part of Robes plan to shield his bosses?
Not having the info you have, I'm just trying to get a handle on what all the issues are, who's telling the truth, etc.

He's not lying or covering up.....but there is plenty he's not saying.....there's a difference.

[LaCajunsFan]

He's not lying or covering up.....but there is plenty he's not saying.....there's a difference.

Ok...the last time I'll say this:
1) in the interview he lists a lot of issues with the foundation getting done as the reason for the lack of visible progress....I.e., no demo being done.
2) He also states confidently that the demo will start in two weeks.

So he is either misinformed or not telling us the truth. Neither of those seem like viable options to me, but that is my opinion and I certainly could be wrong.

What are you saying that he is leaving out? I don't need sources.....I just need to understand what I'm missing here.

Lemoine doesn't have our money to do the project and neither do we currently and the clock is ticking rapidly...what else is there to say?

So robe was not telling us the truth when he gave that interview, or is he just not aware of it? He could've said far less, while not throwing anyone under the bus.....IMHO he would not have had to been so misleading or encouraging if the situation was/is so dire. That's the part I'm having trouble understanding and/or accepting, sorry. Guess we will just have to agree to disagree.

NTP has still not been given and the contract is calendar days Helmut.

Next hurdle will be ULS board. And that's not a gimme.

Hold on tight

So if the ULS board does not agree then this job is FUBAR. Who is Stewart?

[anhil8tor]

He was stating what he was told when asked. Did they ask if construction was scheduled to start on June 17? Did they ask if 70% of the funds were there as mr. Farmer stated?
