Well, there you go GBCP. The Athletic has more than one article on teams like Cubs and Yankees laying off staff. Missed that previously but you just knew.Originally Posted by Sanlmar
I was making the observation in wagering or MLB relative to the trade deadline that prolly few moves get made cause COVID killed the money. More serious than anyone gives credit for yet in all sports.
But again, MLB is not unique. I know you guys blindly worship the NFL but they are THE most financially exposed.
Quickly caught sight of Under Armour backing out of UCLA and Cal deals. Force Majeure cited.
You could spend hours diving down this sports financial rathole.
Athletes are committing financial suicide but I applaud the conviction.
The rookies, prospects, college and high school players of this era are gonna get screwed. Brutal. A common theme amongst many otherwise smart guys here is that “things will bounce back”. That is not how the world works. Usually even the smallest changes have cascading effects. The challenge is taking some stab at what those effects will be.
