Sure. But the people running MLSE are smart enough to know that they're in a business where out of 30 teams only 1 gets to max out their revenue per season and that what determines that 1 often has a lot to do with luck. They also know that they have other areas of potential revenue growth besides making the playoffs and Burke may be doing gangbusters in that regard.
And, more to the point, they know I'm sure that there are some fundamental differences between running a sports franchise and just about any other business. Nobody's livelihood is tied up in whether or not the Leafs make an extra million or two.
