@danorlovsky7 In my opinion, so does @colincowherd knocking him out of his Top 10 QB rankings.

@NBA acting like @MLS with these "injuries" 🙃

@KVN_03 Waving someone by to walk in front of your car & not getting any type of acknowledgement, not getting a "thank you" when you hold the door for someone, talking during a movie (in the theater or at home- I'll tell my own family to shush 😂), parking in 2 spots, & tailgating.

The Hollow Men

American capitalism is rotting from the head down. We have replaced the "Owner-Operator"—the risk-taker-with a new, parasitic class of corporate bureaucrat: The Risk-Free Insider.

By "Insider," I am not referring to a specific title. I am referring to the entire administrative state that has captured the modern corporation. This includes the Directors who exist solely to collect fees, the Executives who exist solely to collect bonuses, and the Managers who exist solely to hire consultants.

These are the hollow men of the boardroom. They are masters of PowerPoint. They wear the right suits. They say the right buzzwords about "governance" and "ESG." But they are mercenaries fighting a war with someone else’s ammunition.

In a functioning economy, authority is tied to liability. If you make a bad decision, you lose your own money. That fear of loss is the only thing that keeps a business honest. It forces you to cut waste, obsess over the customer, and stay late to fix what is broken.

Today, we have severed that link.

We have rigged the game so that heads, the Insider wins; tails, the shareholder loses.

If the stock goes up, the Insider collects a massive performance bonus. If the stock crashes due to their own incompetence, they are fired with a "Golden Parachute" worth tens of millions. They are gambling with the house’s money, and they never leave the table poorer than they arrived.

This looting starts in the boardroom.

We have normalized a "Country Club" culture where directors are selected based on social profiling rather than their ability to build a business. The modern board member is often a professional tourist—paid an average of $350,000 a year.

Let’s be brutally honest about what that number represents. The average director is paid nearly five times the GDP per capita of the United States. They earn more for attending four quarterly lunches than the vast majority of Americans earn in five years of hard labor.

And for what?

Most of these directors are "over-boarded," sitting on three or four boards simultaneously. They treat directorships as a gig economy for the elite. They fly in, rubber-stamp a compensation package they didn't read, and fly out. They collect checks from companies they do not understand, do not use, and certainly do not love.

They are not there to ask hard questions. They are there to be collegial. They are there to protect the other Insiders.

And what happens when these boards hire executives who also have no personal capital at risk?

We get the Delegation Economy.

When a Risk-Free Insider faces a crisis—bloated expenses, a broken supply chain, or a stale product—they do not roll up their sleeves. They hire a consultant. They pay a strategy firm millions of shareholder dollars to produce a 100-page deck telling them what they already know.

This is not management. It is intellectual money laundering.

They use shareholder capital to buy an insurance policy for their own careers. If the plan fails, they can blame the consultants. They delegate the work because they are terrified of the responsibility. They would rather preside over a slow, comfortable decline than risk a bold mistake.

While American Insiders are busy optimizing their severance packages, our global competitors are optimizing their products. They are not slowed down by bureaucracy. They are not waiting for a slide deck. They are outworking us.

If we continue to fill our C-suites with administrators instead of operators, we will lose our edge. We will see iconic American franchises hollowed out by fees, managed for the benefit of the Insiders, while the true owners—the shareholders—are left holding the bag.

The time for polite governance is over.

If we want to save the American economy from mediocrity, we must demand a return to the "Owner’s Mentality." We need leaders who treat shareholder capital with the same reverence they treat their own savings. The era of the Risk-Free Insider must end.

@Ravens PS- so happy for Co-Cap!!

@HoodieRamey I like it too. Why are ppl beotching about this?!?! He's chill... He's relaxed.

As a diehard member of the #RavensFlock I'm baffled that so many people are pi$$ed at Marlon for going to Seattle & the parade. Why does it matter?
1- His former coach just won a Superbowl.
2- It's a cool experience.
3- Maybe he just wanted to.

@DeCostaLacie I've thought of you several times during this whole thing, not knowing you personally, but still knowing how hard it must be. 💜

[Zach Bollinger @zachbollinger18]

I have a lot of thoughts and emotions about the John Harbaugh move so here’s a late night long rant you don’t care about:

I’m kinda sad. Not because it was the wrong move. In all honesty it’s the move we all knew needed to happen for a little bit now. But that doesn’t mean it doesn’t sting. John Harbaugh has lead this team for 18 years. That’s crazy. I still remember being a kid when they hired him. I remember going to his 1st game. Time flies.

I’ll be honest, I’m going to miss him. I’ll miss his vague injury reports, his word salads that told us nothing, his unwavering support of his players (even to his own detriment). His catch phrases were corny but a lot of times they were true- It wasn’t always pretty, but it was the Ravens.

It was time to move on but that doesn’t mean you have to pretend like it doesn’t sting a bit to see him go. Soon the frustrations from the disappointing recent seasons will pass and we’ll look back on Harbaugh’s tenure with a smile.

It may feel like a long time ago, but don’t forget that there truly was a time where nobody had it better than us.

Thanks for the memories, Harbs.
