So there's basically going to be a war of attrition to "starve" the White Sox to death on payroll and stadium funding until they have no alternative but to capitulate to the Ishbias...

That’s a bit scary. Need to pray that Michael Reinsdorf loses those shares somehow. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's the thing. Almost all of this dudes net worth is his franchises. His net worth is listed at $2.3b which is obviously way low with him owning almost all of the Bulls and half of the Sox, but I don't think the dude can write a check for a billion dollars.

caulfield12 Posted Tuesday at 12:02 AM Share Posted Tuesday at 12:02 AM After missing the NBA playoffs and play-in tournament with the largest payroll in league history, the Phoenix Suns have fired head coach Mike Budenholzer, the team announced Monday. "Competing at the highest level remains our goal, and we failed to meet expectations this season. Our fans deserve better. Change is needed," the team said in a statement. For the third consecutive offseason, Suns owner Mat Ishbia, CEO Josh Bartelstein and general manager James Jones are changing coaches. Phoenix finished 36-46. Budenholzer had issues connecting with the locker room this season, with team officials concluding that the roster failed to respond to the 2021 NBA championship coach, sources said. Budenholzer's inability to coexist with his players centered around the franchise's cornerstone, Devin Booker, and went down the roster, those sources said. The Suns will now hold a wide-ranging coaching search, sources said. source: espn.com Can you imagine JR eating $40 million and 4 years on a manager's contract? Preposterous. Ofc, constantly churning through new managers isn't exactly a brilliant strategy when it's almost always about the players in the NBA.

And it wouldn't matter even if the Ishbia's could get the remaining eight minority partners (for 15%) to move to 50% overall because the Reinsdorfs would still retain the control shares.
