Nah, no decision yet. Lots of speculation though

http://www.dallasnews.com/sharedcontent/dw...n.58bdc1ac.html Cendant to buy Wyndham for $100 million 12:45 PM CDT on Wednesday, September 14, 2005 Bloomberg News Wyndham Intl "A" 1.14 3:58 PM ET N/A Previous close: 1.14 Cendant Corp., owner of the Days Inn brand, will acquire the Wyndham hotel brand and franchise system for $100 million to enter the upscale lodging business. Franchise agreements for 82 hotels and management contracts for 29 hotels are included in the agreement with Wyndham International Inc., an affiliate of the Blackstone Group, New York-based Cendant said today in a statement. The purchase is the first by Cendant since July, when it completed a plan to shed businesses unrelated to travel and real estate. Cendant, the largest U.S. real estate and travel company, owns brands including Century 21 and Avis Rent A Car. Cendant agreed July 26 to sell its marketing services unit to Apollo Management LP for $1.83 billion, the final step in its plan to simplify the business. Before that Cendant Chief Executive Henry Silverman divested tax preparation, auto-fleet billing and mortgage units to help fund more than $3.1 billion in acquisitions since 2003. The agreement with Wyndham also includes the worldwide rights to the Wyndham brand for timeshare development and sales. No properties are being acquired as part of the transaction, Cendant said. The company yesterday lowered its 2005 profit forecast by 4 cents a share because of damage and lost business from Hurricane Katrina. Shares of Cendant, which also operates the Orbitz travel service, rose 13 cents to $20.36 at 9:44 a.m. in New York Stock Exchange composite trading. Through yesterday they declined 9.2 percent this year.

I can hear it in my head right now

I think that lot actually does fill pretty quickly.

ROFL I love it; if only it could be done

Uh, its for certification purposes; it's very major and we definitely want to pass.

Do we come in singles or as an economy pack?

I'm perfectly fine with them taking us lightly I just hope their team does so too!

Wow. Scrappy is so strong that he is holding up that girl with just his hand.

So if JM is Jamario, is PC, Pauigi?

LaMo down 31-0 in the 3rd.

Why don't you call Gabe and explain what happened. They can even print you new tickets if you want.

Talk about no rush defense in the 4th quarter!! JT and PC are going to have a field day. OU was going to run on every single play and Tulsa absolutely could not do anything about it.

LaMo could be in for a long year

With all these games going on now, I am really antsy for our game to get started tonight I feel like the whole nation has started without us. Oh yeah, they have

TD Tulsa!

FG for OU. 17-9.

OU scores TD and moves back ahead.

With 3 minutes to go in the 3rd, Temple has "-1" yards offense.
