J.P. Morgan Chase bank has been confirmed as the official money men behind all of this. You might remember them from the Enron scandal or the WorldCom scandal... or their UK banking scandal... or their Overcharging Active-Duty Military on Mortgages scandal... or the Class-Action lawsuits against them (I've been part of one of them!)... or their California Energy Market scandal... or the Subprime Mortgage scandal... or the Bernie Madoff scandal... or their Mortgage Racial Discrimination Scandal... or their Market Derivatives scandal Crazy Ted fucked around with this message at 09:27 on Apr 19, 2021 |

Loving Africa Chaps posted:
And even if it's an American import it's a terrible version of an American import. The closed leagues with restrictive player policies? Those have often come into force in recent years due to owners of smaller-market teams playing hardball and forcing big-market owners to make concessions and not the other way around. And the four "major" pro sports leagues in the US? Three of them are the way they are now because competing leagues merged or combined functions instead of having teams gently caress off and do their own thing because they thought they were better than everyone else.

It's kind of like when companies get so big that they literally factor in fines and litigation costs into their business model. They know they're into all kinds of shady poo poo but they really don't care as long as they can avoid too much negative PR.

Lost in all this is that the most evil of the owners in this mess might actually be the AC Milan owner if you look up his history. He's the one that bought Argentinian debt and then used that leverage to seize an actual goddamn warship. IIRC he got AC Milan by loaning money to their owners, they missed a payment, and then he took the whole drat club in return

Another amazing thing about it all is that after the New York Times scooped the whole plan instead of giving some mealy-mouthed plausible denials everybody involved just went "gently caress yeah we're gonna do this and be legends".
