“We can’t thank them enough. All we can offer them is a promise that the Commissioner’s Office, the team owners and the Board of Governors will continue to work hard to ensure them of top notch games. We are also improving on our social media platform to keep them informed on all the happenings around the league and get them closer to their favorite players.”
