    ^ interesting idea, but the ML$E board think they know everything about hockey. That interfering has been the bane of the team. That doesn't apply to football.

    It's just opinion anyways. I go by Anselmi's statements over the years about not managing the team, but leaving that to Mo. You have reasons to disbelieve that, I'm sure, and I can't prove you wrong (but ML$E's public statements do match what I'm saying).

    MLS is a tough, physical league, that emphasizes speed, and features plastic fields, grueling travel, extreme weather, and incompetent refs. - NK Toronto

    Yeah, but the fun is in deciphering public statements . Not many companies, especially not many private companies, are entirely up front and open in their public statements.

    And that's really why we have this mess with DeRo - there were conflicting public statements about what was going on behind the scenes; did he ask for permission, was it granted, was it a paperwork mistake, and so on.

    Going forward we're going to appreciate having a sports team that runs at a profit and with fiscal responsibility and plays things close to the vest. It's still going to be frustrating .
