    since it's from 2023, that breakdown of NBA revenue likely doesn't reflect the new media deals that start this season

    The NFL is interesting to me:
    Local TV revenue for the NFL.......1 %
    National TV revenue for the NFL....... 66%

    it's probably because with the NFL rules on broadcasts, the games for the local teams are available every week. I mean for chrissakes, the fucking Seahawks are always on Fox or CBS in Portland every damn week

    There is something to be said for that. Paul Allen had money. Lots of it.

    See thats where you can't just trust some AI facts you get on the internet. Jody is listed as the 4th wealthiest because it's saying she owns every asset in the Paul Allen trust. She doesn't. None of the Allen trust wealth would have been liquidated to help the Blazers financiallly. So if anything you could think of Jody as one of the poorest owners in the NBA.

    Similarly I don't believe any of these people have a real idea of Dundon true wealth.

    When the team is selling for 4 billion you don't have to worry about the owner lack of wealth. Dundon has a history of spending smartly with the Hurricanes, not being a cheapskate, as well as with many other investments.

    Well, Jody wasn't/isn't an owner at all. So she shouldn't be on the list poor, rich, or otherwise.

    The trust should be on the list, and the trust is very wealthy, and it did, in fact, spend money on players, coaches, etc. Whether that involved 'liquidation' of assets or 'petty cash' is unknowable.

    We don't even know what percentage of the Blazers Dundon will own, do we? My impression is that it will not be 100%.

    I guess the Seattle kraken radio announcer was fired by him when he was with Carolina. He was like their Bill Schonley. So he mentioned that was a cheap ass move firing him, and some other shit he heard

    Its not that someone has a negative opinion about the team, it's when someone *only* has negative opinions about the team and does it for attention/shtick.

    He used to do local radio in PDX. Now does local radio and calls the Seattle Kraken. It’s actual information. It may or may not be 100% accurate. But he knows both Portland and the NHL

    Correct, we even have a mod of all people that does that 24/7, always looking for a reaction.

    it’s kinda sad if you ask me

    John Canzano does local radio. Doesn't mean he's not a schmuck.
