The NFL Thread 2: 1. T Swift

He still gets to run the team. So why not take the money for whatever else he wants to do.

I assume with the minority stake, they can pull the plug on him at any time. Obviously Cuban has proven adept at it, so there is an incentive to keep him. However, my understanding is that Adelson, et al have final say and can override him at will. So, seems like an unpleasant situation for someone who was so accustomed to answering to no one.

If I had that, enjoyed it, and was already rich, there is no way I’d sell. There would have to be something I wanted even more. Not sure what that is in Cuban’s case.

Really it’s effectively six years. Same as Allen.

Allen being #2 basically shows it’s about how the officiating has changed.

I presume that in the sale arrangement they spelled out Cuban’s powers. Everything I’ve seen on it says Cuban has final say over basketball decision, while Adelson has control over the business, etc.

In case anyone is unaware, Miriam Adelson is the widow of Sheldon.

Here’s what wikipedia says:

It also says Cuban has operational oversight of the team, but it seems they can overrule him, which makes sense as they have a majority stake. With a majority stake it would seem that any control they allow Cuban can be taken away at will.

It’s about the future, the Adelesons want to build a massive casino in downtown Dallas with the stadium as part of it. Cuban will profit off that in some way that is not entirely clear.

The team just extended Kidd and the adelsons don’t really talk publicly about the team up until now.

How about the measure of whether or not he supports the Nazi kicker?

Same for Mo Black’s brother, Fat Andy

Who the fuck is “Daryle Lamonica”?

Raiders QB back in the day

Please tell me the first name was pronounced dare-isle

I’ve only read about him and assumed it was pronounced like the standard Darrell.

Correct. He was one of Al Davis’s fuck it I’m going long QBs. Poor man’s Ken Stabler. I never knew it was spelled that way.
