I remember them talking about hearing wind of the league was in real trouble and considering folding. And I don't know if that was sort of hyperbole.

And when I think about 0-2 team, 0-6 team, we didn't play well, but we didn't lack that. 2010, even 2014, to some extent, there was pride and there were good leaders. You've seen it all. So is that an accurate assessment of what you see too? Or what is it?
