Bears and Broncos willing to open up the books.

We'd be the last team to open ours.

Incorrect by a long shot. Dallas will never open theirs. NE, Washington would be right there with them. They don't want to because it would show small market owners they have TONS of extra money that could be disbursed in revenue sharing. Hell it might show they have been hiding money that should have been shared in the first place.

Spot on point.

Teams opening their books would have consequences in the league well beyond the CBA. It woudl drive a wedge between small market and big market teams.

Can you say, "MLB?"

And it's not so much what, how or where the teams are making money as much as it is the right of a privately owned entity to keep their books shut.

Unless I have a publicly owned company with a bunch of stockholders to keep happy and Wall Street has their rules, why should I open my books every time someone asks?

How about if everyone on the board agrees to show me all their personal bank records?

    • T-Mac is a nickname, Tet is a shortening of Tetairoa. Like you said below... your name is Jonathan, I could see "Jonny" being considered a nickname, but Jon isn't a nickname, it's a shortening of Johnathan, see the difference? And if your mom named you Jonathan for it's biblical significance/meaning, because she was very religious, I think it would be different. T-Mac is Polynesian, so much in their culture has deeper meaning for them, particularly names.  So for his mom to feel this way, I highly doubt it's just because she likes the name Tetairoa and not Tet, it's much more likely than not to be because the name itself has a deeper meaning in their culture.   Particularly as T-Mac himself has often talked about how much his Polynesian heritage means to himself and his family. And no, I'm not saying all this because of how much he's my guy, if he was just "normal american" and his name was Jonathan and he didn't like fans calling him Jon, I'd probably just say tough poo.  It's that he's Polynesian and I know things like names have a much deeper meaning in their culture than they do in ours for the most part. For whatever it's worth, a quick google search.......
