Either way I feel a good story was lost and replaced with flashy new toys and cool callbacks.
Yeah I agree. I don't think there was any sort of spectator comments that made them change or anything. I would think it was a corporate decision to be proactive in case it wouldn't go over very well. I agree that it wouldn't have been viewed that way, just a little walking on eggshells.
