“...the players were the ones pushing the boycott of Atlanta.”
I have heard this is not true, that it hadn’t even been discussed. But I also heard that the guy who is the head of the Union did push it.
Players I heard said they were not asked anything about the Atlanta Boycott - they had no idea until it was announced.
The players polled 50 players. It doesn’t say which players or what teams. Fifty players out how many? Yep, players support the move.
