I kind of put that whole thing into two buckets.

One, really proud that Ian has the opportunity to be a general manager.

Something we've talked about for a long time before we were even employed by the Bears.

It was our vision to climb through the ranks, get a seat, the GM seat, and then help the other one get to their position as well.

So really happy for him.

How we do that and why we do that has nothing to do with compensation whatsoever.

I want to make that very clear.

On the other side, there's a set of rules that were put in place that I think can be applied to this situation.

So we've communicated through the right channels.

So we'll see what happens as we move forward.

I'm not sure.

We'll just wait for a response.

No one personally called me from the league.

Yeah, so it'll be up to the league and how they see it.

We've had conversations, yeah.

Yeah, I mean, I'll be honest.

I think it is a little strange.

I mean, at the end of the day, you should want to develop your staff regardless of the color of their skin.

I think that's important.

I think we take a lot of pride with the Bears on how we have our setup.
