Yeah, as someone who lost two teams (Nordiques and Expos), I find it sooooooooooo stupid that people would wish for the team to leave. Even a shit team is better than no team at all.
A night at PNC is super fun. The team has an history of over 120 years. You don't flush all of that down the toilet because Bob Nutting is a cheap piece of shit.
Revenue sharing isn't for that purpose.Imagine calling fans "enablers" when Nutting would still be making a profit with a completely empty stadium due to revenue sharing.
The most insufferable kind of Pirates fans are the one who belittle others who just want to enjoy watching the Pirates. If you hate the Nutting owned Pirates so much, stop paying attention to them. Don't lecture the actual fans in here based on "YOU'RE GIVING MONEY TO NUTTING!" because we like baseball and the Pirates.
Revenue sharing isn't for that purpose.
That profit sharing is to go into the team not his pocket. And yes, if he has little to no fans he's also getting little to no merchandise and other profits either.They make a ton of money from teams like the Dodgers and Yankees giving up money from their lucrative local TV deals to the poorer teams in the MLB. PNC Park could be a ghost town and Nutting would still make money.
The reality is that no amount of protests are going to change the fact that Bob Nutting owns the team.
Yeah, his one note shit is getting tired. No one requires anyone to watch.
That said, I can't believe they are just running it back with Cherington and Shelton. The idea of giving GMBC another offseason of dumpster diving excites no one.

Turning 30.0 down to a minimal 1.0 to 3.0 will certainly cause a farkes.
