If they think they can successfully ice 30 teams in the markets they're in right now and have a viable product, it's just not going to happen.
game level maybe saw team teams took

I've committed myself to be this type of player. Bitch and moan as I may, I've committed myself to it, and I'm going to stay committed to it until I'm done, because they gave me a chance to win the ultimate goal. I'll never forget them for that.
