A.L. Central Discussion 2016

[MiamiVice]

according to YOU, Glass is $1.8 billion, which everyone else says he doesn't go public with his wealth, would put him, 5th richest owner in MLB.

wheither or not he is 5th, 10th....whatever, the point is Glass can afford whatever payroll he wants. Doesn't matter if Illitch is 20 times richer.

1.8 mil is only one estimate... there are some estimates that say he doesn't even have a billion in assets.

 

[MiamiVice]

Im done humiliating you for tonight John Travolta.

 

[MiamiVice]

Forbes doesn't even list Glass in their top 400 richest in the USA...

Tigers deal is 40 mil
Royals deal is 20 mil

its only 20 mil, mathman

and 20 mil pays for 1 player for 1 year, like I said just some gravy

 

[da55bums]

The Royals increasing payroll 5 years in a row, really has proven the point that Glass can afford whatever payroll he wants.

Now I see why your pizza place failed.... the fact you think 20 mil in additional revenue is "just some gravy"... seriously.. you are a retard.

Seeing as they started with a payroll around the bottom of the league.. it doesn't prove shit. If you think David Glass can afford to take 30 or 40 mil dollar losses you are a clown. I am going to laugh at you when the fire sale starts in KC.

 

[da55bums]

lol, the fact you subtract 20 from 40 and get 30....I see why you don't do books as well as health inspections, door man.

Reality is a funny thing. bums.. reality says you failed at business and I didn't.

Reality is a funny thing. bums.. reality says you failed and business and I didn't.

sure, you seem like a pretty honest and accurate guy, who would ever doubt you? its on the internet.

 

[MiamiVice]

I would be pretty pissed off at the world too if I was 45, fat, and lost my business I owned and had people saying I looked like John Travolta... I get it bums... I understand your anger. Its ok guy... let it all out.

hey quick, 4 minus 2 is what? 3

numbers are pretty confusing for door men.

Forbes reported that the Tigers had annual revenues of $ 254 million in 2014, ranking 13th in the major leagues. That figure was down from $ 262 million in 2013. $ 50 million of that comes from local television revenues.

50 mil - 20 mil = 30 mil....

 

[da55bums]

The Tigers have to think — and plan — smaller. Even with some of the best TV ratings in America, they pull in about $40 million per year in local TV treasure, which is what was estimated in an article that appeared this week on FanGraphs.com.

From The Detroit News: Tigers say Fox Sports Detroit deal a good one

and 40-20 = 20

CF Cain, KC complete $17.5M, 2-year deal

yes, Royals won't increase payroll, they can't spend - another year, another year wrong.

Ahhh, but I am sure you will be right about royals trading Hosmer, Cain and Moose in 2016.

 

[Howie115]

I don't get how a 6 yr/132 M deal is considered a steal? Were there reports of teams offering him more than that?

Verlander was pushing Ilitch for the deal. He wanted another Upton to play with.

Vice - how many YEARS have you and dabums been going at each other? Seriously! Do either of you think there might be something "odd" in carrying on this PERSONAL connection for so long? You two have grown closer and gained more knowledge of each other over the YEARS than many couples I've known. As one of the very, very few that even notices your continuing melodrama....I wonder if you two could create a personal thread just for this soap opera. I know you think that you have a large audience - but IMO, most of the other posters just see your back and forth stupidity as boring and uninteresting...the regulars here have seen it all before and have turned the channel. Seriously...HOW MANY YEARS HAS THIS BEEN GOING ON? (HINT)
