I think I remember reading somewhere that McClendon and Ward put a combined $50,000 of their own money and McClendon has now turned that into a net worth of about $3 billion dollars. Now tell me that ANYONE would say they wouldn't want that for themselves. I'm not saying money is everything or that I think everyone should strive to achieve what McClendon and Ward have, but I do believe that the man has almost gone bankrupt, twice. And that because of his business acumen he has become a city and state leader. I don't see where he's gone wrong. Simply because the American sports culture has made it a norm to have the city/state pay for capital improvements in exchange for a cut of the profits down the road doesn't mean everyone should all of a sudden jump on his back about how much he makes.

Just doesn't really make a lot of sense to be mad at someone for getting in a game that's been going on a LONG time. But maybe that's just me...
