@DKThompson@josh_newberg SPCX has several exit cliffs : Regular insiders unlock 20% after Q2, then 7% after 135 days, +28% after Q3, rest ~Dec 9. But Musk + extended holders seem locked into 2027. So this might not settle for another year
@DKThompson@josh_newberg I think it’s worth to DCA in with micro share purchases. Not a fan of their founder but he has a track record of making shareholders wealthier.
@BOGBackup1 Something changed with Stricklin this offseason. My guess is a combination of UAA dinosaurs exiting and having highly effective coaches in the three big sports
Macy’s in Chicago. To be honest with you I only went in there because I desperately had to pee during my 4h walk but wow that’s giant flag 😂🇺🇸
I respect how proud Americans are of their country, unimaginable back home in Germany.
@PhilipYEdwards@WillMilesSEC@GatorDave_GB That’s the point I think. Ncaa rules and enforcement are so legally unsound because of their unilateral imposition that they can’t stop wrongdoing. Personal responsibility is a different topic. That’s on Sorsby, his family, and Texas tech. He seems to be trying to get help
@38Godfrey Instead of explaining why collective bargaining could prevent all of this just get anonymous quotes from barstool or draftkings to counter what big 12 coaches and ADs are saying
Re: Sorsby, the NCAA is reaping what it’s sown. In ‘14/‘15, Northwestern players tried to unionize and the NCAA objected, stating that unionization would “create significant instability in college sports.” The case was dismissed on jurisdictional grounds, but the key issue of whether players are employees has remained. Now Sorsby is challenging NCAA rules as being arbitrarily harsh for what his team is calling a “mental health condition.”
The NCAA disagrees. Heck, I disagree with that framing. But it is indisputable that the NCAA has drug its feet at every turn when it comes to any sort of collectively bargained solution.
Remember when Tom Brady got suspended for deflategate? The US Court of Appeals said that the NFL commissioner had broad authority as part of the collective bargaining agreement. Basically, they said Goodell’s ruling might be unfair but it didn’t matter because he followed the collectively bargained rules.
It’s bad that Sorsby can gamble on his own team and play. But I actually think the judge in this case is right. Were Sorsby to win his case, the damage to his career would be irreparable when he finally got reinstated. That is the point of an injunction. The only question to me is whether the NCAA could make up that harm with monetary damages.
But now the powers that be in the NCAA will wring their hands at “instability” with the full irony that those hands are full of money they’ve made because they’ve delayed at every turn operating like all other legal entities.
