[QUOTE="RonJohn, post: 997928, member: 2426"] I don't assume that everything in the complaint is a "lie". However, does that quote from the complaint include quotes from the ESPN contract? Do the words they used actually mean that the entire contract expires in 2027 unless ESPN extends it? Could it mean that portions of the agreement expire? Could it be that FSU explained things to the lawyers, but didn't include every detail? Could it be that the agreement for the ACCN expires, but the broadcast of games would still be intact? We don't know, other than FSU's interpretation of what it says. Try to step back from emotion and look at things logically. Don't put pure faith in how FSU describes things. Don't put pure faith in how the ACC describes things. Try to find backup information. Try to find facts to judge FSU's and ACC's interpretation of the issues. My complaint with FSU's filing is that it doesn't follow a logical path. It mixes ideas instead of clearly stating issues and specifying what law provides a remedy for that issue. It may seem as though they are clearly stating things, such as -- It costs $572 million to leave the ACC. However, that is not a true factual statement. It costs $130 million to leave the ACC. There would be an additional cost to get their media rights back, but that is an entirely separate issue under an entirely separate area of law. It may work well to convince the public, and it has apparently convinced you. However, it is not a legal argument. [/QUOTE]
