    Sadly he won't be able to see this come to fruition.
    Easy for him to say, given that the league is years away from renegotiating its next TV deal (if there even still is conventional TV to negotiate with when the time comes). Could have just as easily been telling you what you wanted to hear.

    Yes he could have been giving me the answer to what I wanted to hear, but I didn't get that impression of the man.
    He appeared sincere.
