The mud bath doesn’t solve the problem
There’s something about the business model of pro sports teams that eludes me. The press goes to great lengths to reveal the absurdities of the contractual rewards reaped by the players, and that same press takes great pleasure in letting us know every time a general manager or a coach is “sacked”. Not the football quarterback sack (hype for the Superbowl) but the kind that says that a rich man who did something or other will now have to find another city to do something or other. Maybe it’s akin to a lunch sack; the wrong one from a countertop, on a busy morning.
