That seems to be how we get most of our news anyway. WTH not? In fact, as you mentioned about the media calling it the "Kiss of death" if Snyder came out and said it publicly, it might even be better for them to do it that way. I would just hope the players buy into it and start putting all their thoughts into winning the next game.
