Return To The RAIDER-FORUM
I know Vegas had to pay 500M to join league. So gotta think Seattle paid even more. Plus they are probably profitable (big problem in NHL).
I honestly think Mark is a good guy at heart. Against domestic violence. Women’s sports is clearly about equality. So many worse thing Mark could be spending his money on.
Just hope he realizes it isn’t going to make him any money and is more likely to lose money.
:popcorn:
What about when the players are demanding "equal pay" when attendance is 1/3 of their male counter parts?
What about when the sentiment that male WNBA team owners are evil because there are not enough female owners starts (and it will)? Mark will be caught in the middle of all of it as the oppressive straight white male owner.
I hope it is a successful venture but there is a ton of ways this can go wrong and thus effect the Raiders in a negitive way, which is what I care about.
Curse gonna curse.

Not sure Mark has the 650M required to buy them.Attyla wrote Thu Jan 21, 2021 4:41 am:not sure why owning an WNBA team is bad. He wants to be a sports guy, not a football guy. Good for him, I am sure he wants the Knights as well if he can get them

There are numerous examples of the things I described. I know we aren't supposed to say it out loud here in 1984, but its all true. The ministry of truth will not be happy3rd and Long wrote Sun Jan 24, 2021 10:55 am:You’ve got issues..
