I would find it hard to believe that an exceedingly small handful of fans venting their frustrations would have caused the board to shut down. Same with financials reasons, the board isn't even a drop in the bucket.
Just to throw out ahought, is it possible that this is coming down from on high by the league offices? Maybe they are trying to get all the teams to phase out their boards over the next year or two?
I'm guessing that if it's a league edict it has to do with the fact that the league always seems to make themselves look bad at every turn..This could easily be their way of trying to shut down just any voice of decent that they can.
What? Fans are giving us to much shit on forums? Shut em down..
I wouldn't be to shocked if at some point they make an effort to shut down all boards citing copyright infringement or some other such legal maneuver.. That too could backfire on them, but I'm guessing that since they have heavy influence in the halls of power it seems worth the risk..
