Editors comment: Ok, so Mark Ein and partner bought World Team Tennis. Question to Mark. Ok, so you’ve owned the Washington Kastles for years, but why aren’t you now marketing all the teams? Why do you need to be a billionaire to own a team that plays two weeks a year? Teams that fly back and forth across the U.S. seems odd to us.
And since the nation of America is already divided, might as well make an East coast | West coast league… So the teams just play on their coasts and meet in the finals. Instead of “puddle jumping” across the United States in private jets? Just asking Mark.. You “over-market” the Kastles gear and now you don’t market the rest of the league? So glad that greedy drug co. MYLAN no longer sponsors World Team Tennis. (LJ)
