heck he saved lost $10M in order to possibly save losing a lot more. He's obviously a very intelligent business oriented person so he must have seen something sour and backed out. Although I can't see how the Penguins aren't going to be profitable with Malkin and Crosby being the two of the brightest most sought after and watched players in the game today.

#1 he's the CO-CEO and he's also MY CO-CEO (I work at RIM)
#2 Do you think 10mill is a big deal to someone worth 1.04 Billion?
#3 He didn't back out for profit reasons he backed out because they want him to leave the team in Pittsburgh.
