We would all prefer for this to be resolved sooner rather than later.

Obviously it's practical to think about it happening sooner rather than later because we need to know if we would have significant salary cap to deal with if he wasn't going to play in 2007.

I would prefer to do it sooner rather than later but not immediately.

This is a difficult and unfortunate situation. I am glad this is being resolved sooner rather than later.

Sooner or later I'm going to die, but I'm not going to retire.

Sooner or later, we sell out for money.
