Message: [QUOTE="sutomcat, post: 3679547, member: 27"] Well, the Mets must definitely do NOT own their RSN. The Wilpons and other investors do. Some big market teams make significant revenue from their RSN contracts. Which were of course reduced for the reduced season. Revenue from the gate (ticket sales, parking, concessions) accounts for about 40% of all MLB revenue. That was all gone last year and most, maybe all will be missing again this season. I know you are smart enough to realize every MLB team lost 10s of millions of dollars last season. You surely understand they are going to lose similar amounts this season. Probably significantly more because they are planning to play a full season. I don't see how anyone can reasonably argue that teams have the same revenue coming in now than they did pre-COVID. You have made no coherent points here. Do you seriously think the owners should continue take no action to reduce costs given the massive reductions in revenue? [/QUOTE]
