In 2014, ESPN goes from 360MM/yr to 700MM/yr. Fox and Turner will go from 400MM to 800MM per year.

Based on that, we currently get about $25MM from national TV under the current contracts which expire in 2013, which is probably right because that is about what we've been hearing for that portion of the team's income.

Whatever the breakeven is, whether Glass is lying or not, that unknown breakeven number, which may or may not be ~70MM, should increase by almost $25MM/year in 2014. From there, unless we sell more tickets, our income will be stagnant until we can renegotiate our terrible local TV deal in about 8 years, but we should be able to afford a healthy bump in 2014.

So will the other 29 teams.
