SPRI - something very fishy here with such a high price for mediocre operations.

This one would take a lot of work to figure out. Some questions would be:

--How will they finance the sports complex?

--While they don't rely on sports teams (opting for events like auto racing, tractor pulls, etc.) do they have any history of sports event promotion?

--Why split the stock with a 12 million float now and almost no institutional ownership?

The momentum so far says it's a dangerous short to jump on too early. But keep us posted - this type of "story stock" usually trips and crashes eventually. The pieces leftover often make delicious shorts down to drill bits.

Looked at SPRI a time ago

they own the ground on which the complex is to be built. I don't know how much the ground could be worth.

I don't believe the story, though.
