Short term hopefully this brings more attention to the sport. If a multimillionaire and a billionaire go after one another it will generate headlines.
But has Bill Ackman said anything about track publicly? This could be a very minor investment for him. But if you piss that guy off and he wants to make this a cause look out.
The totally free agent nature of the sport inhibits its success as a professional entity but it is hard to get around.
GST isn’t prohibiting people from doing DL but it clearly looks to be preventing people to going to another well funded entity. And that would make it harder for Athlos to expand.
Not sure why Alexis cares unless he wants to expand which I think would be a good thing . Unless he is just trying to portray himself as the good guy.
But we’re still going to care most about Worlds and Olympics . Everything else is pure entertainment .
