Maybe that was a good exchange. AD isn't what it once was. Time will tell.

I stand by my claim that long-lasting (especially pre-round, all-round) deals are bad for the game, though, regardless of who forge them, and the closer the cooperation, the worse it is.
Absolutely, the less long term deals, the more fluid politics become obviously and more shifts in who has the upper hand.

But it's like sport, everyone wants to see offensive and attacking games but coaches want to win over everything, so you see defensive tactics. You can't blaim the coaches and I think the same applies here. Everyone wants to win over whats the best for the game.
