Why do teams now have to sell out and join somebody's network in order to win? It's getting harder for the independent teams to recruit the best dots when they're already allocated to some Pro/WL parent club two or three seasons down the line.
No disrespect to the Addicts, Black Hand Cartel, DTD, etc. because they're pretty cool. But owners who prefer to keep their team's identity intact should have the opportunity do do so and still have a reasonable chance to recruit great dots, win games and advance to the highest levels as well.
I'll hang up now and take your comments off the air. Thanks...
