YOU DON'T GET IT... Toronto isn't totally done, CC, because apparently you don't get how an operation works logistically, Portland watched Manchester/Adirondack transition into here.... then we watched Worcester start from basically where St.John's is starting from 2 years ago, even then, it took them another full year to get the logistics of being awarded a franchise and look what they accomplished....
I'm with royals, here, we don't know logistically how Orlando's perception changed since it was publically known in inner circles from the folks diligence in NL that this was coming.... It's like Greenville, in a way, I don't think those internal discussions with the Rangers , and the dual pressers that ended that agreement, same with the Devos family, who own the Solar Bears, just as they did previously when Orlando went on hiatus after the dissolution of the IHL.
