You guys had to be expecting this from me, right? After being thoroughly called out by ESPN.com and Jeremy Benson about my article “Squaw & Alpine Sign Letter of Intent,” Squaw does in fact, not only sign the letter of intent, but goes on to actually purchase Alpine. So let it be heard loud & clear: “i told you so espn & jeremy…tee hee.”
The most spineless thing ESPN.com did actually happened today, when they changed the title of their reactionary post from:
Squaw Valley/Alpine Meadows Merger Unlikely
to:
Squaw Valley/Alpine Meadows To Merge
…pretty weak sauce to whole heartedly call us out like that, then cover your tracks, methinks.
