Since then Jordan sold Charlotte and Cuban sold part of Dallas for 3 billion valuations. I'm sure Taylor will do whatever it can to make this deal void. I don't beleive a word that he's saying, because if you asked anyone to come up with that 40% now, based on a doubled valuation (or close to), its not hard to get that funding or financers as there is money to be made. Taylor is probably being a douchebag.
I don’t get what you think you’re exposing here. Taylor literally said he wants to get back the higher valuation. If the valuation dropped, Lore and ARod might try to get out of the deal.
Also, to your “its not hard to get funding” line, ARod and Lore literally had the Carlyle group back out on their funding for this deal last week, and they have struggled to come up with the money at every deadline. It might be hard to get funding if you’re THEM, and the investment firms worry you’re a poor boy swimming in a big pool and they might not get their loans repaid.
Exposing? What are you reading that isn’t there?
Wow, you’re right, you really are not getting it in either thread. The only reason you think they have struggled to come up with money is because Taylor told you so. Because all the info you gave on this sale comes from the guy that doesn’t want to sell for that little anymore and wants to back out on the deal. Getting it now?
As for Carlisle backing out, I clearly think they are the ones getting screwed here. And if ARod needed money, this doesn’t have to be a loan, it can be for shares in the team (explained because you THINK ARod is a bad credit risk, wtf) of which lately there seems to be no lack of money willing to buy shares without ownership/decision making.
