    It would be a significant part of the deal, I’m guessing.

    Hockey Twitter getting defensive about sparse Devils coverage from Athletic, reminds me of some of the complaints I’ve seen in this thread on other NY area teams

    How much went into it? $150M? Not a terrible return.

    Best-case scenario for all involved, I think.

    I'm not really sure how to feel about this because I think we all know what usually happens when media companies get acquired.

    Good for them. I am sure they were hoping to get unicorn money, but if they waited much longer, the price was just going to come down, if we are really entering a rising interest rate environment.

    I'm interested in seeing how many butt-hurt right-wing sports fans cancel their Athletic accounts.
