They hate them too.

March 4, 20224 yr So if the luxury tax kicks in sooner, it benefits the smaller budget teams giving them more money to compete. The players want to stop tanking a have lower budget teams spend more and develop better teams. I'm wondering why the players are angry? Don't we want more teams hitting the luxury tax threshold and kicking in more money?

March 4, 20224 yr What I don't understand is if it's such a shitty business to be in, and people are lined up to pay you billions of dollars for your team, why aren't you selling?

March 4, 20224 yr Paupers compared to the Waltons or Bezos. Plus if the owners published a list of the wealthiest players it wouldn't matter. Love the players chipping in to help. Great move. And publicizing it was a nice PR move.

March 4, 20224 yr Oh look, the players are starting a fund to take care of stadium staff screwed over by the lockout, while the owners are squabbling with labor over minuscule costs like meal money. But the players are the greedy ones and ownership deserves all of the spoils because of "risk"...

Don't we want more teams hitting the luxury tax threshold and kicking in more money? Salary cap and floor is what this defines. Players are scared of that. Can't have it both ways.

I'm just looking at the Forbes valuation of 1.26B, would definitely have thought that it would be more than Arizona
