That the deal went through pretty much proves he's right.

He says he took a meeting with Las Vegas's former mayor Oscar Goodman in a room full of four showgirls, and suggested that casinos would buy out all of team's tickets to ensure that no one left the strip to catch a ball game.

"We don't care if nobody comes," Samson said (Miami Today reports he had a smile on his face at the time). "We'll play in front of nobody, and we'll have all the money."

Think about that for a minute. That's basically an admission that the management of the team cares more about making money that having actual fans. To a degree, sure, that's true of all sports executives, but come on Samson, you're not actually supposed to come out and say it.

Based just on this portion of the speech, as the article seems to, I feel that the conclusion drawn is faulty.  Unfortunately, I can't put my own interpretation into words.  Comes from being a MM user in the '90s, methinks.
