After you've been through that [O'Leary incident], everyone approaches it with an entirely different mind-set. The good thing about athletics is most of the stuff is easily verified. But there are an awful lot of facts and figures in their bio, some of which is almost impossible to verify yourself without spending weeks. ...

There still may be some way that this can be timed and structured where we could still play at home. But I guess at this point there's no guarantee. I think one consideration would be if there was work going on at one side of the stadium, would there be a way to seat people on the other side? I'm not sure we have any answers yet.

The five places we've had the most conversations about and also had people from those sites wanting to talk to us have been Jacksonville, Orlando, Tampa, Dallas and New Orleans.

With these other events, there's a commodity of some sort. We're running a Web site as well, so we would like to drive traffic there. Our feeling is, particularly in terms of a press conference, everybody is welcome to cover it, but if you want to see the full-blown transcription or if you want to watch the whole thing, then our site ought to be the place to find that.
