It's pretty much the same as owning any other type of "franchise" business.

If I own a McDonalds, I do so knowing McDonalds can revoke my franchise if say I'm caught on the six o' clock news making disparaging remarks that aren't good for the overall brand.

this is my go to comparison, really simple and yet many still don't get it

I remember when she paid doctors to interview him and they declared him brain dead.

He should just pay some doctors to claim hes not.

He did then Sterling himself got on the stand and removed any doubt that he's unfit to be handling the team or the teams negotiations.
