        Hey, I am creating this hot, new crypto currency... you can get in on the ground level. 1000x better investment than this PAC12 stuff. Call me.

            But TV rights expire in five years and there's no uncertainty whatsoever around sports media.

            EDIT: Not! There’s a ton of uncertainty.

                  • wonder if the p12 is unable to get debt on terms it likes or is otherwise prohibited, because the only way this makes sense for a fund is an arrangement that looks a lot like debt. how else does some tiny minority get its money back?

                          • Speaking of mocking. The ducks had a fake punt that was just about the worst thing ever contrived. Too bad they were able to pull out the win.

                                Sounds like a preferred stock structure. I'd think it would be more attractive to a hedge fund than private equity. PE firms aren't the first investors that come to mind in a buy and hold investment. At least a hedge fund might look at it as a recession hedge play.
