There is a Grand Canyon of difference between a grand jury not charging him and him not engaging in the conduct all those women have accused him of doing.
This is why Deshaun Watson, from the beginning, welcomed a police investigation: He felt he knew that the truth would come out. And today, a grand jury did not charge him on any of the criminal complaints.

This deal is solely about merit. She is worth every penny. Adds value, insight, intelligence and entertainment. To insinuate otherwise is pathetic, until you consider the source…
ESPN just gave a HUGE new contract to their "NFL analyst" Mina Kimes.
Kimes has never played a down of football in her life, yet she will be paid $1.7 million a year to talk about it on woke ESPN.
ESPN is no longer about sports, it's about promoting equity among the genders!

These financials say nothing about real profits. Teams appreciate for sure but annually are not nearly as cash positive as people think. Many many teams lose cash every year. And that is a fact. Because unlike the media who may claim to know (speculate), I actually know.
Do not believe the lie that baseball teams are not extremely profitable ventures. They are. And the financials of the Atlanta Braves, as
@EricFisherSBG
noted, illustrate that. A $104 million profit in 2021. A $6 million-per-game revenue stream. As a business, baseball is superb.
