Re: A NEW NFL --- REPLACEMENT TEAMS
BULLDOGS PRESS CONFERENCE
Peter Norris: Good Afternoon ladies and gentlemen, I am Peter Norris the Director of Media Operations for the Virginia Bulldogs! This is a great day for our franchise. It's a little akward for me in that I am introducing my boss (laughs). Mr. Chris Medding is a avid sports fan who has a deep passion for the game of football. He bring that passion now as the Owner and CEO of the Virginia Bulldogs. In just a moment, Mr. Medding will make an introductory statement. At the conclusion of his statement, the floor will be open for questions. Please state your name and affiliation and keep your questions as concise as possible so we can get to as many as time allows. It is now my extraordinary pleasure to introduce to you the owner & CEO of the Viginia Bulldogs, and my boss, Mr. Chris Medding!
Chris M.---Thank you very much ladies & Gentleman and thank you Pete for that kind introduction, see me afterwards about a raise *laughs*. This is a great day! I am thrilled to be the owner of the new franchise and think we have great things to look forward to. But today isn't about me. Its about the Virginia Bulldogs, the City of Alexandria, and our fan-base. I know there are many questions surrounding not only this team, but the direction of the league. Many of these league wide questions remain question marks for even the league execs. The Bulldogs will always remain in compliance with NFL rules, policies and regulations! My pledge to Bulldogs fans, the City of Alexandria is that I will be honest and forthright and this franchise will always maintain integrity. As you may have noticed, I am mentioning the city of Alexandria, and think it is important to show them gratitude in hosting our franchise, thank you so much and we hope to make you very proud. This community has done so much for this franchise already, and I feel you always should give back to your community. That's why I am designating 5,000 tickets per Home game this season be donated to charitable causes. My hope in this is that those who may not get to ordinary experience a football game will be given the "experience of a lifetime!" As far as the team goes, I can tell you that we will strive to put together the best roster we can to produce a consistent winning product. I know winning isn't synonymous with instant, but we will work each and every day to better our team. I want to pledge to our fans that every decision will be thoroughly weighed and thought out, and any decision will be made in the best interest in the team. I have tons more to say, but I think I've rambled on enough.... I'll open the floor for questions
PETER NORRIS-- Members of the Media, Please Raise your hand to ask a question of Mr. Medding... When he calls on you, a staff member will bring you a microphone. At the time please sate your name and affiliation. Again we appreciate you being concise in your questions, as we will try to get as many answered as possible. If time permits, we may be able to allow second questions from you, but we will not guarantee!
