Since a bunch of other "star" players are supposedly involved, and knowing how much the Commissioner values ratings, etc., I would expect that his office drags its big feet on this. Maybe until it can no longer affect this year's schedule. After all, who knows how long the Commish has known about this and has been silent. Being just a tiny bit of a cynic, I'll bet the big money'd owners who have players involved have been bending his ear and whatever other appendage they can get hold of. So my money is on an off-season decision with minimum affect.
