Clarification: don't think Martin staying on would be impediment to espn return... his charge, tho, was to find a significant upgrade on espn deal... failure to do that may have been last straw, but were issues tween Martin and board that were the major underlying faultlines
Some putting forth that mvp may want to reup w espn,moved on Martin because of his very public comments about lack of support from them... John was pragmatic and had walked back those words a bit... doubt this played a role, if so very minor... getting new deal is vital atp, tho

In this story, Braves CEO Derek Schiller says he is not in favor of an expansion team in Nashville. “I love Nashville. Just as a reminder, Tennessee is part of our territory, right?” Schiller added. “... We’re going to be protective of the territory what we have.”

Now imagine reading this and thinking these same people want to be educated on the business of sport. Laughable.
Yes, so many critics of things in sports don’t understand the actual sports audience. No, burnt out out retired hipsters turned journalists aren’t going to understand that most middle aged men are Tim the tool man Taylor that enjoy college football, drinking beer, and emulating Oba Femi’s strut when WWE comes on (okay, maybe that last part is just me). McAfee is an encapsulation of the average middle age millennial male and the stuff they love. That’s why he’s getting PAID! 🤷🏽‍♂️

McDonald's went from all-time highs to FIVE year lows in just 8 months - that's vicious. They are at top of their game in tech and execution. If they are 'struggling' I dont think people understand the stress In the system and economy It's not just oil and Eli Lilly (GLP's)
