And they have location, they have the OK from that government to allow people in and they have an OK from Putin to allow people to leave...but they're playing this just to make it more suspenseful?
I can't imagine that giving people more bad news during a time when they've been getting nothing but bad news already would be a good or ethical marketing/promotional tactic. With pretty much all organized sports shut down, I feel like the world needs this fight. I don't think even egg would stoop to playing with peoples' emotions like that, especially when people are already depressed and stressed out.
