Funk just doesn't want to drive more than 10 minutes to work.

The irony of this statement ^ is that Funk also owns a franchise (or two) which have offices in downtown Oklahoma City. So. .... wouldn't it make sense if he had his corporate office downtown?

Im not saying he shouldn't have the majority of his operations in NW, but he should have the top jobs downtown - where the visibility exists, where the banks are, and where governance and critical mass is; Heck, I'd even settle for him being in the NW Business District over far NW Oklahoma County. ..

Downtown or the NW BD aint that much of a commute.

I agree with what you are saying but if his Bricktown project comes to fruition the way the plans look on paper it could very well change the face of downtown in a very positive way. I definitely don't agree with everything he does for sure (e.g. the loss of the women's tennis tournament due to his ego) but he has done some positive things.
