If I was an owner I would be wondering about the stance of staying at all costs. Course they have info and strategies we aren't privy to. But still, I'd be wondering about the current strategies of the league.
Unless this is just all a plan to keep the Yotes in Phoenix as long as possible because other teams (ala Altanta) will have to be moved too.

Those situations aren't even remotely similar. Dallas was in trouble not because of issues with the franchise, but because of issues with the owners wealth and other investments. Hicks needed cash. That's pretty much the same issue that is currently playing itself out in New Jersey.
