If there's one thing I do think glASS is trying to do that's right for the game it's to bring fiscal sense (equality...) to the sport. Granted, he's doing little more than letting one team fail badly and hoping, someday, the world cares, but 9 out of 10 lawyers will agree that in the legal sense of the word it is "something." It's stupid, it's ridiculous, and it won't work, but it's as much has his greedy ass is willing to do to fix a very broken system.
If there's one other thing he's "doing", I'd say that keeping inept people in key positions and allowing them (not putting any pressure on them until it's too late) to make obviously bad decisions to allow/ensure the team keep failing.
He sees himself as a visionary, a revolutionary thinker of sorts, a game changer......and won't ever change as long as that kind of coin keeps rolling into his account.
