Thought this article was worth sharing. It sums up a lot of how I’ve been feeling about sports in general these days, and I imagine how some long-time Timbers/Thorns fans are feeling in the wake of so much unpleasantness from the club. I am a realist and get the business-side of things, but wish there was a different way to marry fan ownership and owner profits to make it less sketchy than it is now.
