Welp. This has certainly been a day
Makes sense since I can't believe they dumped him.......its a bad look for this franchise.Terrible loss for the Kings fan base.
And as noted in the "Kings $" thread, it's important that we keep an eye on smoke signals that indicate a money problem.
Sacramento is a small market with little corporate base, and that's a common denominator this team - as a business - must fight against. We were repeatedly lied to as a fan base for years when the Maloofs were actually broke, and had no intention of putting a winning product on the floor. I'd hate to see us fooled again.
The issues noted in "Kings $" with developer liens and these layoffs might be smoke signals or just bad coincidences. I'm hoping for the latter. Keep an eye on further costs cuts, cash consideration deals - if cost cutting moves like these continue to happen at frequency: we have a problem, folks.
And best of luck to Scott - he's shown to be much more than just an announcer, and I'm sure his skills will be in high demand elsewhere (just hopefully, not too far away).
As word spread on social media of the Kings' restructuring, some questioned whether Moak had been removed from his announcing role, too. The Sacramento native is best known as the voice of the Kings' arenas, and the team said it would like him to continue in that role and is awaiting his decision.
So, we’ve taken your well paying job with benefits. But, if you’d like to work part time for a lot less and no benifits, we’d be open that (in order to blunt the fan outrage).
These are the folks selling “culture matters”? That’s rich
Oh please. Talk about bending rhetoric without basis in fact. How do you know about benefits, etc?
... if one of us needs to hold off at this point. It’s not me.
10 years running, your business sense, track record, and acumen for saying almost anything either objective or accurate regarding off the court matters is ABYSMAL. Embarrassingly bad.
Between posts 15 and 17, if one of us needs to hold off at this point. It’s not me.
Your ongoing attacks at me notwithstanding
I don't think there is any ambiguity in those initials.
