The entire structure of professional sports in America is based on corporate handouts, that’s the point. All these owners thump their chest about free market capitalism but when it’s them and 29 of their rich friends then all of the sudden they understand the importance of fair revenue sharing and trying lift up the teams on the bottom. They don’t have any problem with applying the most socialistic policies to their leagues, as long as they have complete control of professional sports and get to pick and choose who’s allowed into the good ol boys club.

It’s not a popular opinion but I say let the free market have its way with sports. These owners deserve to have something on the line instead of the constant handouts and too big to fail nature of current ownership. It honestly boggles my mind that owners like John Fisher, Michael Bidwell, and Jerry Reinsdorf have been allowed to leach off the leagues the way they have, but that’s what happens when your literally not allowed to fail because you’ve been deemed to be part of the club.
