from John Shannon of Sportsnet,

If you’re going to go to China, commit to it. Don’t be half-baked. Don’t expect six days in September to suffice as “growing the game.” Do it, and do it well. And do it beyond 2022. Don’t disappear after the Olympics. If this market is as fertile as many suggest, it means continuing to play games, and create awareness for years — YEARS — to come.

All to often we have seen enthusiastic plans followed by corporate apathy.

That can’t happen this time.
