Portnoy thinks so as well

He's been making a lot of great points about her and the sport in general.

She should have been in the $100 mil range. Generational icon in a growing market. The world is hers.

Bad deal for her but likely a great deal for Nike. Unfortunately, pay is what the market bears and if the article is to be believed, everyone else dropped out a much lower price so wouldn't have been prudent for Nike to make any larger of a deal they needed (obviously this isn't news to anyone). If she blows the sport up the bidders will be around come the next negotiation cycle and that price increases. The question is whether this will permeate to other players or if she is a one off.
