Next we'll discover that the owners are all vulnerable adults who need to have their teams placed into a conservatorship. Or better yet, that all of the owners had brain transplants with 8 year olds, who only understand what they want, and not the cost of what they want.

You're 100% right about the Yankess. I find it extremely hard to believe that with their cable contract (worth over $80 million) that they only made a profit of $8 million. Bunch of crap!!!!!

By the way, keep me in mind for future pings. Thanks.

When you factor in TV and radio contracts, ticket prices, parking, food, merchandising, luxury boxes, etc., it's even harder to believe that the Yankees made under $9 million in profits. Their merchandising alone is a multi-million dollar industry.

As for pinging, I will add you to my list, which consists of people whose names I remember from baseball threads!
