to have a difficult time understanding the term "television PARTNERS." If they want to screw them for a short-term money grab in an attempt to stay in shouting distance of the big boys (in addition to acting against the spirit of the contract), I hope they enjoy their situation the next time their deal comes up.

The b12 would be far better off if they operated with a long-term view vs. being the hyper-reactionary laughingstock they've chosen to be.

Until they decide to put pride aside & empower a real (& proper) commish with some teeth, they'll continue providing entertainment for everyone else.
