And there you have it folks.
They didn't officially say it, but IMO that's the new drop-dead date. If there are no games on 1/14, there will be no season. Any later than that and they wouldn't even get half a season in, and I don't think they'd come back for such a short period of time.
I hope these greedy, self-centered ****s realize how much money they are costing themselves in both the short and long terms.
