Secondly, I'll try to give a simple example of that part of their strategy. This utilizes the cost accounting principle of current value versus future value, or the "kicking of the can" referred to above. In year one we're working with a $100 million dollar cap. Let's assume a 10% annual increase in the cap. In year one a $20M asset counts as (20/100=.20) 20% of the cap. In year two the cap becomes $110M. That same $20M becomes 20/110=.1818 or 18.18% of the cap. In year three the cap becomes $121M. That same $20M becomes 20/121=.165 or 16.5% of the cap. In year four the cap becomes $133.1M. That same $20M becomes 20/133.1=.15 or 15% of the cap. The cash paid in year one is better accounted for in subsequent periods when it becomes a smaller percentage of the cap. This frees up cap for other assets in all periods. This is the maximization of assets. However, the selling off or trading of assets in a current period negates all of the savings by forcing all future accounting for the costs of those assets into the current period. |

Re: Alvin Kamara Arrested
The Almighty crooked one deployed goons to get the boss something to look forward to and on top the 2022 punishment list!
He's already grinning like a twisted,deranged, and disliked red-headed stepchild..you can bet your ass I despise that *astard and can't put nothing past him and the tactics he will use while he sits in a pile of donkey s*** to sling at others. He's ruined the game during his obviously agenda driven authoritative rule for me.. "Entertainment huh" "Vega$ huh" Big Market Teams in trouble: give them a biased pass just to show Saints I'm not done with them just yet. Saints in trouble: Dribbles wad and drools AK41 into the red meat Tin-foil... Nahhh Sometimes it just is what it is..fight and handle your business or lay down and get stomped.. I think Alvin will be traded Gotohell wins again.. Sorry mf |

Re: Alvin Kamara Arrested
Having video match the complaint is bad news for the Saints and AK. I hope this is a big misunderstanding and AK didn't do anything wrong, gut feeling tells me he will be off the team in the near future.
