In the event of rescheduling a game, the Commissioner will be guided by the procedures specified above ("Procedures for Starting and Resuming Games" under EMERGENCIES). In all cases, the Commissioner will conduct a full investigation, including the opportunity for hearings, use of game videotape, and any other procedures he deems appropriate. |

Yes, he ought to invoke this power. Last night's result was unacceptable. I'm not even a player and I feel cheated. I can't imagine how the players must feel this morning. |

He won't overturn it.
If he did, he'd have to admit what a joke the whole "replacement refs" thing was.
And he won't do that. |
