The Times profiles Brett and Michael Yormark, who run two of sports' most distressed franchises, the NBA Nets and the NHL Panthers. They claim they like the challenge and in the words of the Times, "have become two of the most aggressive, innovative and sometimes controversial salesmen in sports".
The Times discusses the twins' successes, failures and controversies, including Brett's reversible jersey idea. The piece contains both praise and criticism for the two, including comment from Daniel Goldstein, the millionaire critic of the Nets' Brooklyn arena.

Met both
Unimpressed personally.
And I work on behalf of billion dollar companies. I bet Brett wouldn’t even remember.
Section 18, Row 7 at The Rock!
obviously
these guys are born rats, their business is a ratty business. I talked to Brett during the Thunder game, I asked him if he was really offended by the bags worn by those two guys last year, and his response verbatim was “it’s all bout entertainment”. Not sure what to make of that, but i got the feeling he didn’t really care about the team.
why make that big fuss
with the bags on the heads guys, and then act like it was no big deal. Again could have been a marketing ploy, but i just think the guy’s a snake. I know my two cents, and irrelevant.
if you had worn a brown paper bag, he'd remember!
Outlaw is the new Yi - just with more money and longer contract without the 7.2 rebounds and occasional shooting streak.

Proky wants Nets to resemble the Lakers. But what steps have Nets taken towards achieving it?
Brook, stop with the Mickey Mouse rebounding
I don't get why people dislike him
also he’s kind of old guy cute. He might be my favorite net at this point.
Comparing Cam Newton to other Heisman candidates is like watching the end of Jurassic Park. Sure the velociraptors had been running around causing trouble all movie, but at the end the T-Rex just comes stomping through the wall and annihilates them.- TIP

Santonio Holmes: you don't need open field moves when you've got getting away from the cops speed.
I'm completely indifferent to him

i would say that no matter what gender, job, social status,
a person holds, i would like to be able to shake their hand, look them in the eye and hear the truth.
imagine something extremely witty here
Yormark found out there's more money to be had telling lies

Say what you want about his tactics
But he is the best executive in the business
I am positive that offers have been made to him over the years to leave the Nets and run teams in the NBA and NFL
