You're mostly talking about the Phoenix Suns here, and Mat (annoying MSU name spelling). Justin has limited exposure to UWMC, comparatively. This whole situation is more about bad bets against Federal interest rates impacting mortgage rates...Justin's emergency $2 billion is a backstop to give things time to recover.

At least Colson gave it a chance...Mune still just off. Same with Vargas. But Quero's at least coming back to life...seemingly.

Vargas Mune Colson just not as dangerous recently...

No prospect pedigree, local kid...etc.

The Guggenheim/Dodgers and Fenway Sports groups are much bigger and better examples. Better to run the Bulls AND Sox as a business, where profitability always comes second to championships? Are you also fighting Jeffrey Bezos on his new 30% stake in Liverpool, or Mark Zuckerberg’s super yacht repeatedly ignoring sos calls near Alaska? Trump’s son in law’s brother Josh Kushner couldn’t buy FIFA/Word Cup last week, só now he and former Disney head Bob Iger laid out $12.5 billion for the Lakers barely a year after Mark Walter/Dodgers bought them for just $10 billion, a cap gain much bigger than the entire value of the White Sox franchise. There’s no such thing as a Bill Veeck mom and pop operation any more in sports. Even the Indiana Hoosiers football team costs $50-60 million per year now.

UWMC is 85-90% Mat The two brothers have also made over $6 billion alone in cash dividends that are separate from tumbling share prices over the last five years. Justin is much smarter than his brother.

Speaking of financial chicanery...Dodgers' owner and holder of the Lakers for just long enough to make $2.5 billion off the sale Mark Walter in hot water as well https://sports.yahoo.com/nba/article/mark-walter-investigation-explained-the-timing-of-the-lakers-125-billion-sale-cant-be-ignored-014119218.html "At issue are those two insurance companies, Delaware Life and Clear Spring. According to the Los Angeles Times, an internal whistleblower at Guggenheim filed a complaint questioning how Guggenheim booked revenues associated with those insurers. Again, it's not inherently a problem when companies with a shared co-owner make a deal together, but it can be a problem if — and we are using one of the most extreme possible examples here — a company does something like what Enron infamously did and hides its financials woes from investors by unloading debts into seemingly separate entities that were actually controlled by its chief financial officer. In this case, Bloomberg reports Delaware Life told regulators in June 2025 that it had only $1.4 billion in affiliated investments, representing 3% of its portfolio, and it turned out that number was more along the lines of at least $17 billion in loans (39%) that had been passed through a third party." before being received by Walter's other companies.

On the reddit thread referenced a podcast where he gave a long winding answer that left the other two hosts befuddled/annoyed, with nothing left to say about the topic.

Dodgers' fans aren't going to trade arguably the greatest player in modern baseball history (making $46 million inflation adjusted) for anyone. Payroll is meaningless right now anyway. (Although I'm sure most would like to launch Kyle Tucker to the moon.) And the MVP Award won't be based on a salary/value comparison, either.

“I get he’s only 20 but realistically how much longer can he stay in the minors. He's starting to look like he’s gonna be to good and there’s definitely an argument that AAA is easier for hitters with how easy it is to hit in Charlotte” Amusing comment in the sense that the White Sox have been hyper aggressive the last calendar year and even Braden that fast seemed a bit of a stretch That said…it would send a shot across the bow for the rest of baseball they’re going to start doing business differently, but don’t believe they’re read to move on from Colson Antonacci/Meidroth or especially Benintendi

More joshnelson/pnoles…joy

Some are arguing Fgraphs, others back to The Athletic…podcasting (although most prefer his writing to listening) Didn’t realize The Athletic had a billboard around 35th and the Dan Ryan after they let him go, but can’t ever really be surprises by how companies consistently devalue the contributions of employees.
