We are not talking about some luxury item that is just a precious but an investment that must at least must be self sustaining (and probably an asset that is less liquid than his Amazon wealth). Now, Magic Johnson is the only proposed player here that has actively turned around a franchise and Harris owns one, so they know the work they'll have to do and Bezos may not, so, yeah, I could see him overbidding.

Est.1974 Posted March 29, 2023 Share Posted March 29, 2023 It’s worth nothing that it’s not a good time for Bezos to convert share holdings into cash. He’s be selling really low. So, in an example whereby he converted 5B into cash via a share sale, chances are he’s taking a 2B ‘hit’ in terms of lost future profit on that 5B. Small change to him I know, but not a wise investment move purely from his share holding perspective. Depends how much he wants a football team and how he’d want to structure that deal in terms of investment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dislike Tanya nearly as much as Dan (as much as you can from a distance, anyways) so this isn’t about them or “defending” them at all. But this sort of post is just straight up misogyny. As unfunny as most of the people here are, I still think that we can do better than this kind of stuff. This is bottom of the barrel sexist garbage. Considering the sort of allegations that we allegedly hate Snyder for, it’s a particularly poor look on us. And I won’t even get into the Jason-as-cuckholder thing that people have gotten weirdly comfortable joking about here (like it’s specifically come up a lot which is just odd) which leans heavily into some really gross racial stuff whether people realize what they’re doing or not. Alright, back to your regularly scheduled ownership talk. Edited March 29, 2023 by Conn 3 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dont Taze Me Bro Posted March 29, 2023 Share Posted March 29, 2023 1 hour ago, BringMetheHeadofBruceAllen said: That's why I think Bezos is out, it wouldn't look good for the league to be bending over backwards with the scheduling to please Amazon, which also owns one of the teams. In the extremely rare occurrence of the Commanders being in a late-season playoff race, Bezos could use his influence to keep the 'Manders from having to play on two Thursday nights...if Goodell doesn't see this then he's even more incompetent than I thought. If the NFL owners approved flexing late season games to Thursday nights, there is nothing Bezos could do about it as an owner. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Liquid cash, obviously, while Dan watches from the corner. Dan usually has to pay for that so it’s a welcome surprise. The only question is where is Jason Wright? His role is apparently shifting in these games. I think in the aforementioned scenario, Dan takes the liquid assets to the face while Tanya watches from the corner...that just feels right to me. Jason Wright is just happy to be there...he knows his days are numbered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skinsinparadise Posted March 29, 2023 Share Posted March 29, 2023 (edited) Gasparino just on 106.7, spoke to someone from the league and someon close to Dan. Saying he heard this from league people that the 6 billion is not a real 6. He randomly threw out that Fretitta and Dan are close firends. Then started reading the texts from the person close to Dan. Dan's camp source said the bids are firmer than what Gasparinro reported Dan's camp source also told him there are 2 guys in the woods in addiitonal to the 2 he reported about So digesting this the league source played down the bid to Gasparino, Dan's camp played it up from what the league source thought and then piped in that there are also two other bidders that can make this interesting.

He's shared plenty where I don't think he's Bsing that he knows Dan and people who are close with Dan. He's a business writer, for a major business channel so he knows people that work in that world. i think that's real.

He refuted a major national magazine financial story and was right -- and looks like there is a strong chance he might have successfully disputed a story from Schefter who typically is borderline flawless. This isn't Rick Snider who is just regurgitating other narratives that have already beeen reported.
