The answer is because Congress screwed it up. voice-verified

Because voice-verified

The federal antitrust laws were passed by Congress and and the current state of affairs is whatever happens, there are no rules, because anything, any rule they try to put in place, they get sued, and courts strike them all down under the antitrust laws. voice-verified

And so you just have chaos. voice-verified

You you have kids tr transferring three, four, five times. voice-verified

You have no eligibility rules. voice-verified

You had you have people playing six, seven, eight years. voice-verified
