Message: [QUOTE="amb3096, post: 4313458, member: 11629"] Nor really a fair representation of the Maloof brothers. At the time, the players spoke highly of how the Maloofs supported the team. They frequently attended the games and were always engaged with both the fans and the players. Then the recession hit, and they couldn't continue to afford to lose money on the Monarchs and put the Kings at risk. So they put the team up for sale, there were no takers, and the team folded. Maybe a multi-billionaire owner would have been able to weather the storm, but your average multi-millionaire owner will always be at risk of having the monetary losses pile up since the team is more likely to lose money than not. At some point, they will need to stop the charitable donations. [/QUOTE]
