Re(2): #389 - Blue sky: What if Mark Cuban was smitten by jai-alai?

Posted on March 17, 2011 at 05:46:36 PM by Mark K.

Cuban attends the Citrus, gets blown away by the attendance, decides to plunge. He investigates and purchases Miami Jai Alai for a couple of mill or so, guts and rennovates the buliding, gets landmark status attatched to the building, fixes the bathrooms, installs a spa and a four star restaurant and attatches a covered parking lot adjacent to the property; Contacts the jai alai orgs in Spain and creates an international league of jai alai pelotaris (ILJAP). Eventually arranges for Dania and Orlando to join his league. The players create an Int'l Players Union - The Federation of International Pelotaris Union (FIPU). The players go on strike demanding a larger piece of the pie. Cuban, the Int'l Jai Alai commisioner says no way and relocates his Mavericks to Guernica, thus internationalizing the NBA...and bye bye to hi li!!! Turns Miami into a shopping mall with a 24 plex including IMAX and 3D theaters, also a P.F. Changs and a few other top name restaurants. He then sells his interest and retires.
So it goes...
