If the bulk of the TV contract is paid out to Jamie McCourt in the divorce settlement (which is inevitable), then the next owner (after Frank McCourt sells out, which is also inevitable) will be stuck with a franchise which cannot be competitive.
I don't often find myself on the same side as Bud Selig...but this is one of those times.
Jamie McCourt has already agreed to a tentative divorce settlement that Selig is now undermining. She will not get the bulk of the value of the TV contract, which totals somewhere between 1.7 and 3 billion dollars. This total is at least twice the estimated current value of the Dodgers' franchise.
There's plenty more to go around after the Jewish American Princess takes her cut.
