NFT: James Dolan continues to be the worst

bwitz : 1/26/2023 11:27 am
What a small, petty piece of shit.

Quote:
Owner James Dolan is threatening to pick a night at the Garden, possibly a Rangers game, to shut down alcohol sales in response to the New York State Liquor Authority allegedly coming after Dolan about his facial-recognition technology that has resulted in bans against lawyers suing him.

Please, please

sell.
he is a complete moron  
PhilSimms15 : 1/26/2023 11:39 am : link
So he is going to get back at the state liquor board by punishing HIS own customers. Dolan is the best example of silver spoon management. Guy is the perfect example of Barry Switzher's line, "Some people are born on third base and go through life thinking they hit a triple."

The day he sells the Knicks and Rangers will be a day for a ticker tape parade down broadway.
So stupid but I can't help but laugh at this one

You have just been entered into the facial recognition database for banned customers that have criticized Dolan. Congratulations!
Don't think he realizes

Who he is punishing by not allowing alcohol sales.

LOL
And to be accurate  
k2tampa : 1/26/2023 12:28 pm : link
he hasn't banned any lawyers actually suing him or his companies. He has banned three lawyers who have nothing to do with the lawsuits but who work at the same firms that are suing him. In the judge's analogy, it's like McDonald's banning everyone who works with someone who is suing McDonald's.

Consider how stupid this is. He is costing himself much much more money than he is costing the state in tax revenue. The state wouldn't even notice if MSG didn't sell alcohol for an entire season of Rangers games.

This guy is a complete nothing. Piss off your own customers even more and take money away from yourself. I understand one game isn't a big hit but this does absolutely nothing.
Well what does he care if he pisses off customers  
mikeinbloomfield : 1/26/2023 1:10 pm : link
there is exactly one place fans of the Rangers and Knicks can see a home game. Maybe one of these fanbases need to fly a banner over MSG or something. Jackass.
Isn't there some...

intrepid investigative reporter that can save us from James Dolan holding NY sports teams hostage for the next 30 years?

I mean, they got Sarver, time to take on a bigger fish.
I think Bill Simmons  
Osi Osi Osi OyOyOy : 1/26/2023 1:32 pm : link
recently mentioned that there was something floating around about Dolan potentially looking into selling the team. I also know there's a lot of rumors about MSG/Penn Station these days. Hopefully there's some truth to that. He's the worst.

The thinking was that the ballooning costs of his sphere project would force him into selling the team to cover the $600M. One issue is, he's instead trying to sell the Tao Group in order to cover some of those costs. I believe estimates were that he'd be able to recoup about ~$300M so half.
Typical Dolan

Using fans to fight your battles,as if that's why they give you their money.

He is never going to sell.  
larryflower37 : 1/26/2023 2:35 pm : link
He likes the publicity of being the owner of the Knicks and Rangers.
We are stuck with him unless the MSG sphere project falls on it's face but it one of the most highly anticipated projects in 20 years in Vegas.
MSG is a public company -  
Del Shofner : 1/26/2023 2:41 pm : link
hard to justify this nonsense to shareholders.
He really is just a spoiled rich kid  
Essex : 1/26/2023 2:46 pm : link
there really is no other way of describing him. There are plenty of people who come from money who are successful at life, he just isnt one of them. He is an embarrassment and a walking billboard for the highest estate tax possible.

So sad, the Knicks will NEVER assemble  
GFAN52 : 1/26/2023 3:00 pm : link
a sustainable NBA championship under his failed ownership. Unless he decides to sell the team they are forever doomed.

Putin esque leadership moves. Empty seats is what he deserves.

Indeed.
Fans of the teams at MSG are stuck with him.  
Optimus-NY : 1/26/2023 4:31 pm : link
Unless ha an "accident", fans of the Knicks & Rangers are gonna be stuck with Dumbass Rabbit Ears Dolan for the rest his natural life. He's 67 now to my knowledge, so that may not be for more than another 20 years or so---unless he's got the recently late Queen Elizabeth's medical team on speed dial. Who gets the teams (Knicks & Rangers) if he croacks though?
He is a moron and an asshole  
Peter from NH (formerly CT) : 1/26/2023 5:06 pm : link
but so is the State Liquor Board for threatening MSG's liquor license for him keeping three lawyers out of events. Both parties can be contemptible.
Even if he does follow through with the threat  
JohnF : 1/26/2023 6:16 pm : link
Don't expect Jimmy boy to cut off sales to the suites. Money talks, and Jimmy likes having his high roller customers.

You'll get all the liquor you want there. It's the peons in the regular seats who would suffer.

I doubt Jim ever sells. Owning a professional sports team-& 2 @ that-is a power thing. There are NYers richer than Nolan, but no one knows them. EVERYONE knows Dolan.

Power, stature and the best way to have your money in an investment, they know for sure they wont lose it
What was worse the idea to cancel alcohol sales  
Matt M. : 1/26/2023 10:06 pm : link
and punishing his customers or his bakery analogy?
Dolan is an idiot  
Gogolak : 1/27/2023 2:34 am : link
Is not going to effect me at all since I refuse to pay $14.00 for a cup of warm swill that they pass off as beer anyway. Punish me some more by raising ticket prices and won’t go to MSG at all anymore
