So this is going to sound weird to say, but I've got to applaud Bruce for how he's handling this. Won't trade Trent. Won't waver. Just confident that if he waits this out, Trent will show up.

He's got $21M on the line over the next two years that offer plenty of incentive to show up, and Bruce knows it.

Now if Trent actually doesn't show and actually does shoot himself in the wallet and sit for principle (I don't believe it) then my praise of Allen is premature. But if Trent really intended to go to war in order to free himself from the Skins I think he'd be speaking out.

Allen is playing this game of chicken properly. He knows he holds the cards.
