I don't know where you got "force the sale" from my post, I never said that.

I said forced to comply with the law, which means giving the 6 months notice and allowing a local entity to purchase the team. That's the "Art Modell" law.

We are both paraphrasing it, of course. And accurately.

Although I don't know why Precourt wouldn't have immediately given notice when he first proposed the news. Maybe that counts. That would have been May/June right? So 6 months would have been over before 2019 anyway.
