This has to be the most selfish man, committing some of the most selfish acts, I have ever heard of.I know it will be hard for some of you to believe but Max has nothing to gain financially from this. He is an Art History professor and preserving history is the most important thing to him. I by no means agree with him. He loves history as much or more than anyone in here loves UTEP and sports in general.
The city would benefit greatly from the arena. The citizens would be exposed to concerts, events and dare I say, yes, sports that would normally bypass our region. The attack on the availability of the arena for sporting events showed our boy Max's true colors. Nothing to be gained by that but his spot in the SOB Hall of Fame. Mission accomplished.
But Unilateral Max wants his way, everyone else be damned. All for the love of history. History should paint him as the egomaniac that he is.
