>>136564 >Toronto Star sports business columnist, Rick Westhead, mentioned in the second intermission of the Flyers/Pens affair on Thursday night, that the US Securities and Exchange Commission regulators charged Anaheim Ducks owners Henry Samueli on Wednesday May 15, 2008 with "backdating" employee stock options.
>According to an article in the Minneapolis-St. Paul, Minnesota Startribune, the Ducks owner, along with co-founders, Henry T. Nicholas III and "two others" were charged with "falsifying the company's reported income, leading to what is believed to be the largest accounting restatement yet because of backdating stock options."
>The accusations center around Broadcom Corp. Samueli and Nicholas co-founded Broadcom into a tech company with 6,500 employees and $4 billion in sales.
>Samueli, according to the Orange County Register, was forced to resign as Chairman of the company in light of the recent charges.
And in Nashville, Boots DelBaggio has been accused of fraud. He's been AWOL in terms of media contact and his family estate has been vacated. >>136550 Atlantic Canada dosen't have anything close to enough people to warrant a sucessful franchise
