Message: [QUOTE="CL82, post: 4222087, member: 44"] Hypothetically? Well, off the top of my head, step one is asking. Step two would be explaining why the current policy is net negative to the state. Assuming that neither of those is productive, step three is probably to reach out to your own power centers and ask them to express an interest. If one of those happens to be the governor, I think you’re probably in pretty good shape. Respectfully, of the two of us you were the one who is imagining that this is two independent parties negotiating and all the power wise in one of the two entities. That’s not the case. Appointed commissioners are answerable to legislators and or the executive branch. And both of them are ultimately answerable to the voters. But I note that you didn’t answer my question. Do you want to now? Do you seriously believe that the state of Connecticut would stop funding its land grant university over their decision not to play games at a loss in a publicly owned venue? I do not. [/QUOTE]
