Do you see any irony in your statement?
Fact: ASA would not agree to fly the 8 700s at a loss. GoJet agreed to.
Expressjet lost flying for many more than 8 ERJs to continental. After failing a self branded operation, expressjet came back and agreed to fly the ERJs that it lost to continental at a loss (aka gojet style).

While this sucks, it's better than parking those ERJs all together. It's just funny how you bring up that ASA is in trouble because of the loss of 8 700s when XJET already had to deal with the same situation.
