this has large potential as a promo piece.
this device destruction also looks like a political statement of sorts similar to taking a knee, and if it is, enjoys protection as speech, i think fines could be met with suit
- nradov 4y agoThese are contractual issues between private companies. There is no protected speech legal issue.
- rolph 4y agoa player breaking a device that is perceived as a detriment, is not a contractual issue between private companies

- nradov 4y agoNo that's not how it works. The league has a sponsorship contract with Microsoft. The league is allowed to "fine" member teams over a wide range of issues, including behavior that impacts corporate sponsors. Those aren't really fines in the legal sense, but are allowed under the agreement between the league and its teams.

- klyrs 4y agoPlease post your home address so that I can respond to your comment by writing on a brick and throwing it through your window. Since that is speech, it must enjoy the same protection.
- rolph 4y agocorner of haley n wolftrack, i can speak just as eloquently. please make sure the brick says surface pro on it, there should be a lot of those around.
