There's not a lot that I can say on top of this, other than the fact that it is, most definitely, not about anything but the numbers, no matter what President Raymond Watts would like us to believe.
I would like to see him go through all of the agony that every football player is currently going through, and that many other current and future athletes in other sports are about to go through due to the myriad of ripples that will be created by this decision.
Not cool, Mr. Watts. Not cool.
