Learfield owns the rights and responsibility for our media relationships and can tell us to stick it if they want so long as we do not violate the terms. It is to their benefit though to squeeze and secure as much money as they can to cover their $600,000 and I would suspect are doing their best but you can be assured they wont stick their nose out unless they feel it is financially worthwhile.
