It’s clear from this video that the Papadakis family, majority owners of USL via family trust and NuRock Holdings, only care about padding the pockets of the league ownership (“not only millionaires, we’re dealing with billionaires”) https://www.bizjournals.com/tampabay/video/6082068641001
In the same video, @USLChampionship players are referred to as “product,” showing the utter disregard of USL ownership for the humanity of @USLPlayers. This shows the ownership’s MO for putting the lack of revenue this season onto the players.
USL players are the heart and soul of their clubs and communities. Most of them do not get paid enough as it is. The Papadakis family and NuRock Holdings would rather put players at risk of poverty than give the pay they deserve (whether the season restarts or not). Shame on you.
@USLChampionship @ISCSupporters @USLPlayers @TheCurseNM I #StandWithThePlayers because they give their all, while out-of-touch ownership goes on the record giving more consideration to their fellow owners than to the players, the source of their league’s success.
