I agree. I think the Adelsons see it as a chip to get legalized gambling in Texas. Texas politicians are morons - like most politicians. Can’t believe I have to explain the last part, lest someone get their panties in a wad.
edit: even the bears who are horrible at these things bought land for a hundred million plus in Arlington Hts and looking back had zero intentions of moving but can now twist the broke ass city’s arm to get what they want on the lake front.
Yes the NFL players love it and the NFL really isn’t even a players league. The NBA sure as fuck is. Look at where the stars keep ending up in free agency…
So if the players want it in a player dominated league, top 5 market be damned. To summarize, the Adelsons get legalized gambling in Texas or an NBA franchise in Vegas. Win Win.
Do the Adelsons have any connection to Dallas? They are known Laker fans.
Also an NBA franchise in Vegas is worth a fuckload - not just to the franchise owner, but to the league. The NBA has 3 very well run franchises surrounding Dallas. This seems very obvious as to what’s going on…
This isn’t CR bc I don’t care who you give it to. But the cunt donated 100M to a politician recently, yet won’t pay the cornerstone of the franchise she just fucking bought. What a genuine POS human.
By ‘this shit’, I’m sure you mean anything you can buy with the USD. That’s clearly where he’d like this to head. And he seems to get anything he wants…
You don’t start a bidding war if you are gifting the Lakers. They had a suite at Lakers games for years and actually used the damn suite unlike most billionaires…
The final goal is to leave and live on a private island with private military support etc. For the billionaire class. First, you have to ransack this country before you leave it's bloated corpse behind. Then the next step is to finish off the earth and head to space. If you don't think that's the plan, you're not paying attention.
Yeah I get what you’re saying but unless you’re the 1% of the 1% the Pubs are definitely getting a taste of something more rancid than the Dems could ever provide. Sure most won’t ever admit it and maybe they don’t even know it, but their lives are gonna be significantly worse and that may not be much, but it should provide some solace.
