[Washington]

Normally we all enter the summer excited and optimistic about potential changes and by the time the pre-season friendlies start we're ready to metaphorically slit our wrists.

This year it sounds like we should all be happy for pre-season and hopefully be ready to hit the ground running for a valid pronmotion push. If I remember correctly player contracts don't expire until the end of June so we won't hear much on new names until early July at best.
Once the cull is announced it should give us all an idea of how many new faces we will see and based on the public comments the 'committee' made we won't know any names until it's a done deal (or MS leaks it to us hours before !!!)
