"I think Zorro did a masterful job with his sword 2 posts later" That's funny, I haven't seen Zorro hit anything with his sword yet. "wouldn't you have concentrated on the low hanging fruit than start a food fight that only benefits Uncle Sam." Well, if there was any truth to that statement, I might agree with you. But since WNP bid $55M for Chicago, $34M for Boston, $32M for Philly, etc, when LA only went for $36M, I don't see that they were only swinging for the low hanging fruit. If there was any low hanging fruit in the auction, it looks like it was LA at only $2.48 per pop. Why did they start a food fight in these other markets, if only to benefit Uncle Sam. It looks to me like the majority of the major markets they didn't start the food fights in were all controlled by Nextband. Still smells to me.
