No, you repeating this over and over is not establishing anything.

There is nothing other that speculation on your part that Stone wasnt going to sign here. In fact, if that were the case and it was known to the insiders, as it would have been, Treliving wouldnt be in on that until the last hour. I mean we had his brother here to verify things. Treliving being in on the deal till the last hour tells us that the deal was close. Otherwise Ottawa would have told him to beat it early on. The "too much for a rental" reasoning is nothing more than an excuse for another failed deal.
