Is "siphoning off profits" the same as "not reinvesting money saved on the payroll into the payroll"...

The payroll's down $60 million. It's not that hard to figure out where that money didn't go.

They had to use some of that money to remove the big SAFECO letters and replace them with T-MOBILE letters and to install all those pink (or is it fuchsia?) flourescent lights.

Lincoln in 2015, responding to complaints the team doesn't spend enough
. “We have not made any kind of distribution of any kind of profits we have made since we took this team over in 1992. The owners have got nothing. All of the money that we have made has been poured back in to the franchise, and if somebody says you are not spending enough money, well, we are not taking it out

You think he was lying? Be pretty remarkable to make a claim like that to the press if it wasn't true

I never pull money out of my 401k. Does that mean I am a philanthropist?

The fundamental flaw of every ownership group the M's have ever had is they view payroll as and expense vs. an investment.
