Jessica:
"When NASL Season 2 began, there was another movement for a boycott, and SlayerS was asked to join. We decided to join the boycott, thinking that we could get a good result regarding the NASL deposit policy which we thought was unfair." (From Jessicas initial statement (mod approved version), paragraph NASL Deposits)

Coach Won:
"To protect the rights and interest of our players, we gathered all the head coaches for a meeting, and decided not to take part in NASL, which required all the players to submit a 500 USD deposit. To be more detailed, if NASL did not remove this requirement of a deposit, and treat players better, we will not take part. This decision was approved by all the teams, including Slayers, and after that, we've been working hard to work and negotiate with NASL."
(From the Coach Won Interview on page 122 of this thread)

There WAS an agreement and it was broken without any further communications between the teams by Slayers and TSL

"After several failed negotiations with NASL, the qualifiers of NASL Season 3 begun. Most of the teams were still expressing that they'd wait for the other party to guarantee the rights of the players before they would take part. But in spite of this effort from many of the teams, Slayers and TSL suddenly decided to take part in the tournament without discussing it with us. Afterwards, I got to know about it, and I expressed my disappointment at the actions of the two teams." (From the Coach Won Interview on page 122 of this thread)

"When NASL Season 3 started, we were put in a dilemma again. We boycotted season two, but didn't gain anything, so I told our players to participate, and paid the deposits." (From Jessicas initial statement (mod approved version), paragraph NASL Deposits)

You don't even need to rely only on the statement of Coach Won. Just take all parallels and you see that eSF Teams were right to punish Slayers but just didn't find the proper way. But this punishment (the embargo) was canceled very fast. (See Coach Won Interview and Ace's clarifications).
I don't see any reason why Jessica should be right in that regard.

I like how the Starcraft article is right under the article and picture of Kim Jong-Un.

Of course, SlayerS_BoxeR is waaaaaay more handsome.

Well, there are B-teamers who recently start to shine and perform well that don't involve in this debacle by any means. So yeah, feeling bad for them is understandable.
