    You know, I was going to bid. But I realized that if I'd won I'd probably have to move to Anchorage to oversee operations. No thank you. I may be sweating my ass of down here but I certainly don't want to freeze my ass of up there.

    I checked out the bid history, which had a pretty funny comment in the "Retracted Bids" section:


    Bid Retracted
    Explanation:publicity from this bid has scared off an investor


    i thought there was no such thing as bad publicity! ;)

    I'm not sure an ebay buyer willing to purchase a franchise they have no financial details about is really the best person to lead them out of Ch11 bankruptcy. :)

    Major, I seriously hope no one will make a 2 million dollar bid without talking to the team first and getting all of the financial data...
