No deferred contracts, max contract length of 5 years for FA switching teams, 6 years for teams retaining their FA. Min salary of 1 million (yikes).I hate these guys so damn much.The contract limit is never going to happen. Along with a max annual salary. Just ridiculous stuff that the PA will never accept.

They both invested in a minority stake in the White Sox back in 2021.https://www.sportico.com/business/team-sales/2025/mat-justin-ishbia-white-sox-stake-twins-1234823444/Perhaps Mat will continue to oversee the Suns and Justin will handle the White Sox, but It’s more than likely just going to be a big pool of their family money regardless.

Justin will be principal owner of the Sox with brother Mat and their father as investors/part of the ownership group. This will be the reserve of the arrangement for the Suns, where Mat is the principal owner and Justin is an investor.

I have no empathy for either.They're billionaires. They're buying elections, killing news media, defunding education, all in an effort to throw another suitcase of money on top of the too large pile. The players? The latest Pride dust-ups show us just how sympathetic those characters are. f*** 'em all. I feel no responsibility to feign anger over any offer.
