There is still something else (to clarify my comments, and put stuff in perspective)......in a 32 team league....like the NFL.....while it would be nice to win the championship every year.....it is not feasible.......if not darn nearly impossible.....to expect to win the championship......every year....is sheer insanity....even the team.......with the best players.....and sometimes...what is legitimately the best team loses from time to time......we are all human......even the best fall down and commit a blunder like JR Smith did......we all spill milk..........

So from the owner's perspective.....or the group of owners....if they are all making bank.............they are "fat and happy".....enjoying all the spoils of taking in so much money.....THAT is what is most imp to them.........even for the NY Yankees who always seem to win the championship....a little bit of wisdom will tell you....out of 32 teams.......all trying desperately to compete.....winning the championship every year......is far, far fetched............we might not be able to always win......but that ticket price will always be high...............a beer will always cost you your left arm, etc......more money, more money.....







Like the NBA lockout....which the media called.....billionaires vs. millionaires.......and how we all were kinda like........"what are they whinning about? they are making bank regardless".....the billionaires being the NBA owners......the millionaires being the NBA players....which is true of course....but what is more true.......it is more of a story about business man and business women and business partners vs. ballers..........a baller is expendable.......money is the main element in the equation..........once u understand just how much money is involved......................and that the bottom line is the single most imp element is pro sports.......the rest makes perfect sense..........a lot of owners do not care if they win or not..................if they are raking in the money......and are getting sex out of it.....................that is what is imp to them......just remember Don S's attitude.....
