Dick rocket Bezos is the logical choice.

I think there might be a problem with Bezos owning the team. There's nothing that says one person has to lay out the full price. You could have a 50.1% partner and lay off the other 49.9% to smaller investors.

I don't know if the $6B asking price is realistic, either. The Waltons bought the Donks for $4.65B. Is a team in the outskirts of DC worth that much more?

I can't imagine it is. The stadium in Denver is 4 years newer. They otherwise have similarly storied histories. Denver, from most accounts, has a larger fan base.

I don't think Snyder will get $6B.

Snyder's ownership absolutely decimated fan support in the DMV. New ownership might be able to get it back.

Maybe he wants to stay alive?

After living in the DMV for 10 years, I'm surprised the fans are tailgating and partying now that the for sale sign is up.

That stadium is a rust bucket in a shitty area.

Good luck. You will be a very minority owner. Less than 1%
You can sell everything you have and still not be a majority owner

The money is insane... so when does the NFL hog get slaughtered?

chiefzilla1501 03-28-2023 12:53 PM

Owning an nfl team is the definition of grift. If you can fail for decades, he overwhelmingly rejected and despised by the fans who finance the team, all while breaking crimes that are probably criminal and likely very bad… And then as punishment after decades of getting away with it, trot off into the sunset with $5B in profit…. And yet these owners bitch every single CBA that they are losing money….

there needs to be skin in the game. Bad owners should feel some hurt when they do poorly.

How many Americans have $5-$6 BILLION to spend on a football team and have billions left over? Then they have to care? They can be doing anything this whole world has to offer. Is a football team what they want? Can get fellow owners to approve?

Late stage monopoly capitalism at its finest.

Publicly financed, low risk, high margin legacy business.

Has anyone bought the Cumhandlers yet?

Danny Boy was requesting the league indemnify him at one point.

And he hates Bezos.

It’s complicated.
