That's true, but if we have too much salary on the books the team isn't as valuable. It just makes sense that that will be one of the criteria moving forward. And it's another reason we aren't going to get a proven GM until the team is sold.Maybe, but what we most definitely don't need.......is worse ownership. And that is a huge possibility. All the new owners these days have 2 billion or more.
You need an owner who is not in it for the money because those owners will sell to make a profit....to anyone, anywhere. Let me know when we have the list put together of multi-billionaires who are big Portland fans that under no circumstance will move the team, or even worry about the luxury tax. We have had one of the highest payrolls for years until now. Yes we could use better management, but we could also of have had much worse ownership.
No proven GM or up and comer will be interested in being in that position. And getting fired in 2yrs.
