No, they should use similar guidelines, under which they would probably come up with a similar value. From all I've read, they're not. They're...
That's the whole point. There's a different standard the providers are using for CSN that they didn't use for FSSW. Congratulations, you just made...
Believe it or not, the contracts were for more than one year. The numbers were almost identical. One player is a notoriously fat 28-year-old with...
I wonder how many people in Waco, Lubbock, Oklahoma and east Texas "demanded" FSN?
They're horrible negotiators if they didn't give themselves an exit strategy in the event FSSW loses some of the teams. I find that unlikely, but...
Texas A&M, LSU and Arkansas have substantial interest in the 5-state area. To even imply otherwise is hilarious.
This is completely untrue. CSN Houston has every bit the non-Houston content that FSSW has of non-local-team content. CSN works with CSS, which...
I'm glad you mentioned both sides. It's worth noting that NY also had the glitz, glamour, media attention, endorsements, lifestyle and fame, yet...
The most recent long, athletic defender Harden went against was Tony Allen, and he went for 30/7/6. As for the Lakers' examples, the difference...
Terrific work. I particularly liked that you broke out Dwight's career earnings beyond 2017 or 2018. That's what so few people seem to grasp --...
You're saying it indirectly, because the primary reason you seem to believe Howard's chance of contending is as good or better in LA is based on...
Yeah, if Dwight doesn't come, there's an interesting debate between Pau and Smith. I actually think Smith is a better fit... Gasol to me is a 5 in...
There are numerous reports out there that Dwight is "well aware" of the Rockets' improvement and is very intrigued by them. In case you haven't...
Your logic here is basically "because it happened before, the same thing will automatically happen again". Believe it or not, that's not...
LeBron James. Committed to going to Miami without any assurance or knowledge that there would be a S&T. Same with Chris Bosh. Now, they did get...
Yes. But it's nowhere near $30 million, and is also partially offset by the reduction in state income tax, cost of living savings, etc. My main...
The Bulls and Knicks, two other glamour teams, had this same strategy. They ended up signing Carlos Boozer and Amare Stoudemire to near-max deals....
1.) The idea that Dwight would base the single biggest decision of his entire career, and the next 4-5 years of his life, on the result of one...
Because most of the extra $30 million comes from the 5th year in 2017-18, which Dwight will likely eventually sign anyway (and for max money). The...
The only way this is true is if Dwight's career ends before the end of the contract. As this is extremely unlikely, it'd be nice if Rockets' fans...
