The league's owners are pursuing this and wanting to close this deal for a reason.

Get over yourselves!
While the deal is the largest they've ever gotten, it's hardly huge. And the revenues and viewership in Canada is comparable if not larger.

And I guess it's wrong for us to feel a little ownership in a league we give over half the players to, the championship trophy to, and probably half the revenues to?

Oh, and the game we invented?

Sorry, our opinions matter as much as yours. And it is a discussion board.
