"I think that the most important undertaking and really the bedrock of our relationship with the sportsbooks is the ability to monitor betting activity,"
"The ability to discern inappropriate patterns is really, really important. We understood the prop bet issue from the very beginning. I'm glad we've done something about it. But the rest of the program, right now, I think we're generally prepared to move forward under the rules that we have now."
"respond fully and cooperatively and on time"

The Senate Commerce Committee requested answers, and the league pledged to respond fully and cooperatively.
