Philadelphia Freedom · May 20th, 2003, 08:19 AM

Though the Freedom would be happy to announce what they intend to do with the first pick in the 2003 rookie draft their news conference has been cancelled.

Team owner Matt Marshall expressed his decision when he said, "Though we are ready to go, there are too many distractions, with the possible change in the rookie salary scale, DS changes and other things. For what it is worth we set ourselves up looking at the current rules. We feel it would be patently unfair and harmful to make changes on the eve of the draft. However, the final decision is not ours and until this issue is resolved we are going to hold off making any kind of formal announcement."
