We shall see. That offer isn’t even remotely close to “much better” my man. Thats a “hope it works out ok” and I’m not pretzeling myself into any...
I mean, congrats to Alex I guess? less guaranteed money, much of it deferred, paying a shitload more in taxes and maybe when he’s 33 and has...
Yeah dude- that 73M that Schwab has us “losing” was our take/ which is basically the exact number I cited. He’s pretty wrong about almost...
Look at what a 5 share is in houston. Thats more or less the tops. Multiply that by 100. That’s more than what the Astros would get from running...
Sure- but the audience would be limited and commercials are worth way less than you think. The Astros make more money from people not watching...
I said top out at 30M with it likely to be 10-12M in actual sub prices. That would be 300k people paying 100 to watch the Astros- that strikes me...
The $99 to watch all the games for the year. That would likely bring in about 30M tops in tv revenue/subs but probably more like 10 or 12M. They...
It’s basically disastrously bad for the Astros if a TV package like that was the thing. Like utter trainwteck turn the team overnight into a small...
It’s pretty opaque and not hard capped per se- but it seems to be 150% of refiners or you get stuck with a grievance....

I mean, fan is short for fanatic. It’s not a surprise that people are emotionally invested or tired of the process with spring training starting...
Eh/ they don’t need luck they just need to 100% platoon. Thats 1 mvp type bat- 4 allstar or fringe all star bats and 4 average bats with maybe 1...
I understand you wrote it from Bregman perspective. I’m saying I think he’s so astute that he wouldn’t really believe that. He’s too...
He didn’t help the team out and he didn’t ever think he was helping the team out. He sold the fewest amount of years possible to guarantee 100M by...
The post above about wanting something new does resonate in some level. I think these are all good points. to this I would add- how will this next...
All fair and valid points. Nothing to disagree with at all here.
Nah- ballplayers get hard core ****ed b/c they are w2 employees earning a wage- there isn't any way to hide the income or write it off. Their...
I mean, I don't really go anywhere other than this forum on this board, or occasionally the Rockets or Garm, but I liked this post b/c I thought...
This is the part that just sticks in my craw if he goes somewhere else. It's just such a negligible financial benefit to him to sign somewhere...
And your kid! Even though he's suspect as the Astros have yet to win a playoff game while he's alive (apologies if it's a she!)
