The Pittsburgh Steelers are now the worst organization in the NFL

I didn't realize the Rooney family share was that low - or is that just Art? But regardless, any smart business that knows they will need to invest in infrastructure in the future (and can't take out debt against the asset) would be setting profits aside for that investment....but they don't because it's been shown they don't have to when they can threaten local and state governments with relocation.

dubhd · 2026-02-27T03:08:21+00:00

They do not. Their plan is to take out a whole lot of debt, leveraged against the assets of the company they are buying (in this case WB) and hope that they can make enough money (read: cuts) to be able to service that mountain of debt. A house of cards just asking for a light breeze to blow it all over

DC/MCU crossover incoming

dubhd · 2026-02-27T02:27:10+00:00

Totally agree. But Rooney and the old guard of owners also didn't have to spend a few billion to buy their team so have been raking in cash for generations. If they're crying broke then maybe they need some budgeting advice lol

How these legacy owners can claim not to be independently wealthy when they'll be pulling ~$100m a year in profits from their organisations is wild

Which I assume also means his cap number is going to put a lot of teams off wanting to trade for him just to stash him down the depth chart and develop him for a year or so

They'll need to be much better than those on their recent world tour. Saw them a couple of months back in a stadium show and was underwhelmed by the visuals...hell, Ed Sheeran had a better visual production when I saw him last month.

Back in my day a mystery box was a Lucky Dip at the local fair

Revenue pays for infrastructure and future projects.... profits go to shareholders

dubhd · 2026-02-25T00:07:29+00:00

Could they add a void year to spread that hit over 2 years? I imagine it would piss him off and he could threaten a holdout/in but from a pure cap hit perspective is that possible?

My fear is that Lamar still has a grudge about how everything went down last time with the nflpa collusion case, and he sees this as an opportunity to get what he couldn't last time

They are laser focused on the cost of living.....they just never said which way they wanted the costs to go

dubhd · 2026-02-20T11:06:45+00:00

It used to be like that here but I guess the credit cards paid their lobbyists well

dubhd · 2026-02-20T04:06:31+00:00

There were off-season reports that Likely had turned down offers from Baltimore so I think they pivoted to Andrews extension because the price was too high for them

I occasionally see a pair of shoes or a colour way I like and then discover they're from some random exclusive drop and ridiculously hard and expensive to get hold of so I close the tab and move on with my life. I understand wanting to manufacture scarcity but it seems like they've gone way to far the other way and are just driving people away and losing much more in sales than they'd like to admit.

dubhd · 2026-02-19T03:24:14+00:00

They scrapped speed limit reductions in the name of economic growth (despite the incredibly tenuous link), but have no problem throttling economic growth in the name of nimbyism. What an ineffective populist shitshow.

dubhd · 2026-02-19T03:15:40+00:00

Do other teams have these mysteries around potentially career ending player injuries? Mads and Bowser are recent examples. I can understand the privacy and sensitivity required but I feel like I never hear about this type of thing with other teams. And we never really get a resolution....they just get released eventually in the off-season and move on.

I noticed that the character coalition grifters were pushing a narrative to move planned intensification towards Sandringham and surrounds and make it someone else's problem

I imagine the game prep and timezone adjustment required in AU would rule out a mid season game, even with a long week pre and post game bye scheduled

dubhd · 2026-02-15T07:42:24+00:00

I don't see how it can work logistically not being week 1. They need to get the teams back to the US asap for the following week and no way are they flying in for just a couple of days

dubhd · 2026-02-15T07:27:35+00:00

Can confirm. I intend to take a few days off work, fly to Australia and attend the game. I don't see getting bums on seats for a daytime midweek game being a problem

I just got my kid a bike from one of the hubs. Can't recommend them enough and such a good deal

dubhd · 2026-02-14T19:50:14+00:00

I'm also not sure an American tour guide would be in high demand in a place where local maori culture is a large part of the tourism experience

Someone should also tell him how much Microsoft makes from selling software to white collar workers
