I wanted to say that very thing. What does "all in" even mean?
In cards....you put all your credits in the pot with what you already have....right? But that might not be what old Jerry meant. He probably doesn't even know what he meant.
As I’ve already posted elsewhere, all in means he is going to part with the necessary up front 50m or so for restructuring. In his world, that’s a big deal and he wants his “credit” for doing so.
It does not mean the kid is going to suddenly be fine with spending big on free agents.
They do not at all recognize a problem with their strategy. They think too much of themselves, and chuckle at how dumb the rest of the league is.
I don’t even know what I WANT to happen because if and when they spend on notable free agents and it of course doesn’t work because it’s too little, too late…they literally may never do it again.
They needed to open the wallet two years ago but were too worried about later cap problems…which we are going to have anyway. Nice plan.
