Or is Rocky? Or both?

I don't know how you get to the end of a long negotiation like they did and have absolutely no idea what was supposed to be done with $7.5 million! That is a lot of money. You would sure think the details would have been clear to both sides.

I get the feeling Checketts was trying to change the terms at the last minute because that portion of the deal was inexplicably not reduced to writing. If so, shame on him. I always had the impression from reading articles in the newspaper that the money was a donation to the city and nothing more.

Did anyone else read articles on the issue and come away with a different impression?
