I’m sure he’s glad you’re already spending his money.
That’s actually technically correct.
LP’s don’t have any legal right to input in how things are run.

In their defense regarding this "leak," isn't it possible that this was just one of many scenarios that could take place? Submit a plan for keeping the team intact and paying the tax, submit a plan for getting under the tax line, etc.
And now the news-grabbing headline says "Lore/ARod submitted plan to cut payroll!"

That’s my point.
Why would a guy who doesn’t have controlling interest or even input in the team foot all the bills?

Talk about a nothing statement.
Complete the statement. Slashing payroll to get under the Luxury tax and likely ending the teams run as a contender.
That's not a nothing statement.
Can I find your novels anywhere other than RealGM?

Your imagination is running wild in a desperate attempt to make every piece of news regarding Glen, ARod and Lore all about how wonderful A Rod and Lore are and how greedy and slimy Glen is. You even said Glen doesn't care about winning. You might actually believe your crazy ideas. Glen doesn't care about winning!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Glen only cares about money!!!!!!!!! So ridiculous it is way beyond my imagination, but well within yours. Winning will help him make money. So he obviously cares about winning. If all he cared about was money he would have sold the Wolves long ago to somebody who wanted to move them.

I’m in the deep end seeing things as they are in the whole pool, me boy.

This is probably where I’m at. I would add that they both contractually agreed to have disputes settled by an arbiter. I don’t know if their agreement says they have to accept whatever the arbiter decides, or if they can sue later if they don’t like the decision.

How is believing you have a vivid imagination going after you.

Yeah, walk it back now that Dane has proven your conclusions erroneous.
You brought up “my novels” because you think I’m telling falsities. But that’s you and other posters who were believing fake news and pedaling erroneous conclusions. Funny how that works—the people throwing stones were in the wrong.
The people in the right are polite and not denegrating people. They don’t need to do that to show their logic.
This “news” absolutely was a “nothing statement”.

I didn't walk anything back. I believe you have a vivid imagination. Dane didn't prove any of my conclusions erroneous. I've barely made any conclusions. I didn't say you were telling falsities I just thought you let your imagination run wild to come up with the ideas you came up with. As I said you came up with ideas that I could never have come up with in my wildest dreams.

That’s because I’m smart.
Dane did disprove the story. The projection is meaningless. I think Dane even used the word “nothing”.
You have to look at the entire context of any “news” nugget or stat. The context is what governs the value of the thing.
