Has to be more to it than emotions of thinking devils had a done deal.

Yeah, it really depends on which way you want to run with the limited data. One fork is Fitzgerald blew a gasket because Conroy called some other teams during negotiations. I don’t really see it unless Conroy ground him down, made it sound like a deal was done, and then shopped around again.
The other fork is that retention killed a deal that was close to done. Personally I’ll believe the retention thing when we see it.
