In the end, the board voted 4-3 (Lang, Fuentes, Wagner, Williams VS. Padberg, Milchiker, Jay) to renew Mathur's contract. He was given a quarter-million dollar salary, some of it retroactive. --CW

P.S.: This audio clip was edited down to about six minutes (last June) for the sake of possible future play on the union website. Thus, unfortunately but unavoidably, some remarks were left on the "cutting room floor."
