Stupid question: Just logged in and was wondering where we stand. Live stream is telling me to "stay connected" and now showing me anything live.

it wouldn't help, but i would think that since this is huge for the city, that they would be there regardless. this has nothing to do with the fix or anything else, i just figured they would be there.

KDKA kicked me out. I'm logged into WPXI right now. They're running their mouths to kill time, until the GB members get off their duffs.

By the looks of things, we'll be lucky to hear a decision by 10:30.

My guess is that they're deadlocked and they need more fact finding.

damn it, why are these government types so long winded :evil:

Just come out & say, "The Pittsburgh license goes to...."

WPXI finally threw in the towel, and said we'll come back when they actually make the freakin' announcement. :roll:

Has the meeting even started yet?

This reminds me of waiting on the draft order and the rights to Crosby. Of course that lottery was not rigged and this one is rigged for Harrah's but one can always hope and pray.

Long-winded? They haven't even said anything yet. It didn't even start.
