The broadband play didn't make a lick sense to me either at first since we recently launched 5G home internet service.

Yeah I'm not following this cable pipe dream either especially when TMUS sold legacy Sprint fiber assets for $1.00 to Cogent in exchange for capability to use the network. The 4.5 year contract is likely in existing countdown status with about 3 years remaining.
I've also been taking a closer look at T-Mobile financial ratings and discovered their current, quick, and d/e ratios are less than optimal. Their "current ratio" is .82, when its optimal to have above 1.0 ratio. All these commitments to pay shareholder dividends, two $500 bonus payouts for COLA inflation are just causing Sievert to punish employee base to cut costs.
