Its strange how sports viewership overall has clearly collapsed compared to 20 or 30 years ago. Seat sales, foot sales, etc. are not enough to pay the inflated salaries and most teams are actually on the hook for stadium expenses these days.
Have to wonder if they are really able to make massive profits they say they do by television income? Doesn’t seem statistically possible. Wonder if there is some insider gambling money moving around now that nationwide gambling is standard online? Or if it is a big money laundering grift? These franchises aren’t worth the money their asking. Something else is going on.
