I hope IPL doesn't go under, but if it does the casters and production at IPL should be picked up by other organizations- they produce very high quality content. | ||

You can't have one event be profitable and then claim IPL is profitable, which your original post said. You can't say David Ting has said IPL is profitable when I find a story saying the opposite and that they don't expect to be profitable until year 5. | ||

They'll probably sell for 2-3 times that price. + Show Spoiler + Yes I know they're losing money, and the idea of someone buying a company that bleeds money and doesn't have a business model is hilarious. PE Ratio of 2-3? That's pretty cheap. | ||

From viewership numbers I'd imagine their earnings have actually been going down for the last year, so not really. | ||

God I wish I was done with school. When I start earning money I am going to donate as much as I can with my doctor salary. I don't give a shit about my own wealth. I just want my children and next generations to experience something I was not able to. | ||

The only benefit I can think of is that sponsors might be more willing to jump on board with an established tournament (albeit one that just sold out because they were turning a loss....). | ||

If any company wanted to invest with their own money and get sponsors abroad they can easily name their tournament anything they wanted, not like IPL was doing great as viewership for SC2 has been on a decline for the past 2 years. | ||
