You are completely wrong again. There was much displeasure and gnashing off teeth among the local affiliates because baseball forced them to give XM the broadcast for nothing, and MLB pocketed the rights fees from XM.
Once again you are confusing your "opinion" with the facts sir.
What? You think I'm WRONG.. OK, No problem on this end.
Heck, I am WRONG all the time. Being WRONG is not unfamiliar territory for me.
You see, most people (like you and Mr. Ray) believe that being able to admit that you are WRONG is a weakness. LOL!
Where I view it as great STRENGTH.
Take Mr. Ray for instance. He claimed he was buying (accumulating) this "popsicle stand" in the $30's and the $40's. But, when the stock cratered. He claimed that he sold out his holdings before HUGE, HUGE, HUGE Losses.
While that sounds like a good story. One only has to read Mr. Rays posts to understand his BITTERNESS. You see.. Mr. Ray has the inability to admit when he is WRONG. And this inability in his posts almost always translates into the trading of a given securtiy. Mr. Ray has become "emotionally attached" to a given security/company. And the inability to adimt "even in a basic debate" among anonymous participants the ability to be WRONG, can pretty much guarantee that these same traits transfer to the Bagholding of securities. A given investor becomes so emotionally attached to a given securtity that the refuse to admit that they were WRONG. So the hold it ALL THE WAY DOWN! And on the way down.. They become more, and MORE, AND MORE BITTER.
A lesson I learned many, many years ago, at great expense, is not to become "emotionally attached" to a given security. Because when you become "emotionally attached" you start making up your own data and convince yourself that your own "made up data" is actual FACT. This is, unfortunatly, the point where Mr. Ray appears to have landed.
So if you claim that "I am completely WRONG AGAIN".. Then I am quite comfortable with that conclusion.
OK, I was WRONG!! You see.. That was easy.. Doesn't bother me.. Heck, I have lots of friends that can admit they are Wrong.. Most have been divorced (at great personal financial loss) several times. LOL!! Nope, for me.. The key to continued Financial Success is being able to admit when you are WRONG.
But, of course, this doesn't change the presented data of the Revenue vs. Costs of XM's MLB deal, and Howard Stern.
And so it goes,
