Was there a private meeting a couple of months ago in Dallas? I heard there were representatives from major companies like Dell, American Airlines, Coca Cola and a few elected officials.
Is this true? One could only hope they could use government or their powerful leverage to challenge and get the endorsement of the USOC but they appear as corrupt.
Does anyone have knowledge about this?
There was no meeting. Intrenet hearsay.
I don't.
Because these companies give a crap about track?
Sounds like a lot of wishful thinking. Or trolling.
If untrue it has caught on with the rumor mill. I've heard it from about three or sources.
As for the poster who said no one cared about track this isn't true with upwardly mobile families who have kids in summer programs. Plus Dallas is a major market and there are a few notables who are now VPs of major companies.

Maybe, but track doesn't get enough eyeballs to be even a small blip on the sales of the companies mentioned. If the issue doesn't impact sales materially, then those guys don't give a rat's ass about the USATF.
Actually I know a little about this. There was a meeting on December 2nd. That's all I can say.
By checking the posts you know who am and can contact me.
