So there's that.
And this is a time where...
the league thinks that the players are vulnerable and and they're willing to get into this fight where when the collective bargaining agreement expires if there is no new deal in place owners essentially lock players out so you cannot report to work and then it just becomes a staring contest
And if it goes on for too long and they cannot find any place where they come together on an agreement, then games start getting canceled.
And once games start getting canceled, money stops coming in.
You don't have ticket sales.
You don't have television revenue.
You don't have any of that stuff.
And so you need to have a stockpile of cash to withstand that.
And the staring contest at that point becomes who is worse off.
for not playing games and not having this enormous $13 billion economy every year churning.
Are the players going to fold first and say, I'm in the prime of my career.
I only have a finite number of earning years.
I'm going to go back because I feel like it's right for me right now.
Or is it the owners who blink by saying, we have these businesses that have been doing extraordinarily well.
What the hell are we doing shutting them down?
in pursuit of something that they were never going to agree to in the first place.
And that, to me, is the most frustrating part of this whole thing.
We know the answer from the players is going to be no.
We just know that.
