The USCHO Fan Forum has migrated to a new plaform, xenForo. Most of the function of the forum should work in familiar ways. Please note that you can switch between light and dark modes by clicking on the gear icon in the upper right of the main menu bar. We are hoping that this new platform will prove to be faster and more reliable. Please feel free to explore its features.

I assume he is scum, but, what the hey, it means there is enough pressure now for scum to virtue signal so, good, increase the pressure even more.

Yep, 100%. Didn't mean to imply that it wasn't a good thing ;-)

Cynical and smart are not mutually exclusive, except in the verrrrrrrry longterm.

Yes and no. I mean of course he wants more money. But this makes him look good to both his employees and his shareholders. However he seems to have brought a more Japanese philosophy to the company. In Japan it is common for the executives to take pay cuts before even considering letting go workers.

Not here. You lay off workers, and your stock price goes up.

Yup, Iwata at Nintendo did the same thing.
Apple has 1,000 janitors?

They have thousands of retail employees.
edir: maybe not. There are 273 retail stores in the us alone. At ten employees per, that's only 2,700.

Death to the RSNs. Be like MLS, put the games on a streaming service with no blackouts.

LOL. If I can't watch, I can't watch. Ain't no thing. I've outgrown the need to watch. Hell, I hardly use my Athletic subscription anymore.

Waiting for the Snow to fly...
Is streaming willing to dish out a Billion (with a "B") dollar check though? That's the issue with the change in media that we are currently looking at. Live Sports were the last safe, "sure thing" when it came to having a guaranteed advertiser base. Can streaming currently compete with that?
MLS can blaze new ground because they are a niche of a niche fanbase.
