The devs haven’t said anything because keeping your mouth shut is SOP when you’re being threatened with a lawsuit.

It sucks... but it's definitely understandable if that's the case, I honestly hope everything is worked out and we get the ability to have these players back in our league... It mainly sucks for this year, because we HAD it and then had it taking away from us.
Next version, starting without those players will be easier, since we didn't begin with them in the first place.
