This is a note for any that read the above post.
Steve Pederson did not make the decision to tear down Pitt Stadium. Nordenburg essentially did not make this decision either.
The commonwealth of PA, led by Ed Rendell, strong armed Pitt to move downtown, and threatened Pitt funding if they said no.
Now, you can debate all you want...and some that know more may tweak the actual events leading to this place.
But the bottom line is this: Pederson.....with all his mistakes.....was NOT the person who made this decision.
The fact that Islander Panther claims he is (was) should disqualify pretty much everything this guy says.
The end
