The Official NBA Season Thread: Woj Retires

[pmatic]

They both won.

Shams younger and can still learn and make connections. Definitely #1 now, with a clear lead.

Woj turned down 20 mill apparently. Now he gets to do what he loves for a fatter paycheck.

I can assure you St. Bonaventure isn't paying him as much as ESPN does.

Wonder if his salary ends up going public. Why would he take a significant pay cut when that St. Bonaventure job can be available at anytime

Damn, Woj could end up an NBA exec one day.

 

[QU!K]

Shams gonna get the bag bag now

Because his work-life balance is probably dog****

They're a private school, so likely not unless someone from accounting leaks it.

Being a news breaker seems like a demanding-miserable experience, so I can't blame him for leaving the business.

 

[WASHED KING]

With Woj leaving there is a huge gap for a non bias news breaker for the NBA.

I am clearly needed. Might have to put in my NT resignation letter for the good of the NBA.

Doubt the college job is paying even 7 figures. He’s clearly doing it because it’s totally different than what he’s currently doing, but still in basketball.

Woj spelled it out himself in his retirement tweet, this ain’t about money

Working for St Bonny’s probly more of a passion project, they not breaking bread like that and it wouldn’t make sense if they did

 

[big j 33]

Good for Woj

20 mill to 6 figures is a paycut no one is taking. Regardless of how demanding a job is.

Can't put a price on quality of life.

I can

Once you live that lifestyle, sending kids to top private schools, living anywhere you want, monthly expenses are wayyyyy different.

He must be happy with where he is and got his finances in order if the paycut is significant.

How much do you think he’s getting paid ?

N it wasn’t 20 mil in one year, so stretch that over multiple which he would have to keep working to get it

 

[waukeganwill]

Happy for Woj.

I be gettin worked to death at my lil job so I can only imagine the stress and hours he was putting in. Burn out is real af

I'm assuming dude is good financially. I doubt he'd take the pay cut if it meant compromising his families livelihood.

 

[osh kosh bosh]

Woj ruled the news breaking game with an iron fist.

A lot of people in the NBA (Klutch) probably breathing a sigh of relief,


he's no longer around to hold grudges and punish enemies, real and imagined.

Smoking that Woj pack, smoking that Skip pack.

Klutch Over Everything.

New Media is about to go on a generational run the next 10 years.

Ready for First Take to pack up Stephen A, rebrand with a cast of.

Uncle Shannon
Draymond

How much money do you think a 2100 student Catholic university has?

How much money do you think a 2100 student Catholic university has?

That's not how that works. They break even on tuition and expenses. This is part of a $125M fundraising push they started in 2018 for the athletic program. They raised $75M by the start of the 2022 school year. No idea what it's at today, but presumably over $100M. Woj got paid 7 figures.

 

[MVP]

Ain't nobody trying to hear Draymond stank breath *** every morning.

The one positive about Turner losing the NBA deal is hopefully won't have to see him on TV.
