It wouldn't surprise me if it were something related to substance abuse, with documented warnings. Dean Lombardi can't be that stupid to risk a lawsuite, nor do I think he was stupid enough not to use the compliance buyout last year if he didn't have a contingency plan.

My guess is they have a legit case
