I say this with all honesty when I say if Walter & Gugg aided in funding the Dodgers on the back of fraud, that is worse than the Astros and worse than steroids.
People during the bankruptcy case warned the MLB what is currently happening would take place, both the lack of an even playing field AND Walter committing fraud.
Yet, ever since so many would pound the table that baseball will always have the most parity in sports, that money doesn’t buy rings, and what the Dodgers are doing is good for baseball.
It’s so obvious that non of that is or will ever be true and blows my mind that many ever thought that and some still do today.
The Dodgers' local-TV deal is a profound competitive advantage. Because of a bankruptcy-court ruling, the team will shield more than $1.3 billion from rev sharing over 25 years. What you might not know: They further monetized it through debt deals with Mark Walter-owned insurers.
