It's going to be dead in a lot of the US markets, where it's seen as a second tier sport to begin with, and gets nowhere near the ratings that Poker gets. It's upsetting that through these talks, no mention about rule changes or making the game better. Just boys in suits complaining about money.
Saskin was on the Score earlier - basically saying the players arent making another proposal at this time. The season's pretty much doomed in my books.
