But Iggy held all the cards, and it's very unlikely he would in advance agree to a number of teams he would approve a trade to. Why would he? He wanted to see what his realistic choices were. If he agreed in advance, then the GM would choose where he was going to. Iggy, like all players, wanted to decide where he was going to.
Many seem to thing that Feaster simply forgot to get it in writing. It likely wasn't available in writing, why would a player make such a commitment in advance? There is no logical reason why he would do so.
