I agree. My personal prediction is that the agreement will be that liability is split up, something like 2% Dr Dao, 49% UA, 49% Chicago. Maybe Chicago pays more than UA because they are the ones who physically caused the injuries. But maybe UA pays more than Chicago because they are the ones who started it and told their goons to get him out.
