Remember when we talked about what it would take to relocate?

Quote:im not worried, im just making the argument that it's possible.  especially when you consider all the expenses that have, without a doubt, been significant.

 

I don't think it would be as difficult to show a loss as you might think.  Eliminate the shared revenue that Jacksonville contributes very little to, and its not making much.  London would be their only savior... assuming they don't want to just move there.  Then you would have a London vs Jacksonville case which we would lose.
 

They would have to open up the books in a court of law to show precisely how they're losing money, and they'd have to show a loss for 3 consecutive seasons in order to initiate the process.  They haven't, aren't, and won't lose money if they are able to maintain the current level of ticket sales.  With licensing, broadcast revenues, and all the other streams, what they invested in renovations is peanuts.  Khan has about $25 million out of pocket tied up in renovations. 

 

Logistically, moving to London is just downright stupid.  Whether you're talking about the way the salary cap would have to be adjusted in order to account for a 50% tax rate, or the fact that having a team in London would be a nightmare for visiting teams, and for the home team when traveling, the odds of a team actually winding up in London is slim to none. 


Never argue with idiots. They drag you down to their level and beat you with experience.
