I know some people say the board needs to vet and qualify.

That's not the board's job.

The board's job is to interview and pick the best.

Our job was to vet and qualify as an executive committee because we were never going to have 570 hours to give to the board for them to have time to vet and qualify.

That's why we put all the time in.

And in the end, the board picked an awesome new ED.

And I think the vibes of that room when the announcement came down were unmatched.

It really felt like you won a football game.

It felt like you were back in the locker room, the celebration.

It was just, it was really awesome.

Issues now, I don't think anybody would ever say they were fake injuries, but we've seen players who didn't want to be where they currently are have injuries that made them unable to practice and play.

But you're not able to get fined and you're not able to be punished for not reporting injuries.

So there are issues like that.

I don't think I'm allowed to ever recommend that, but at least publicly.

But I think each player needs to find a way to build up leverage to try to get a fair deal.

The idea that I buried the collusion grievance.

I've never seen the collusion grievance.

I don't have access to the collusion grievance.

I wasn't in any discussions about the collusion grievance.
