That list went right into the shitter the second they ranked Snyder 5th. Or are they going on team value and nothing more?

I would think so. The number one person on the list gave Bill Belichick a shot when no one wanted anything to do with him. His team won three of the last 7 superbowls. Have won there division 5 consecutive years. Have managed to remain in contention/win sb's year after year. Built a dynasty in the salary cap era in a league designed against the "dynasty" Has yet another AFC championship appearance last year. Built a brand new stadium with all the snooty MA politicians against him. Kraft flew the entire team on private Jets to hill's funeral on his own coin this year. Spent a ton of his own coin to give the pats ultra lavish superbowl rings during there runs ( Isray cheaped  out on half his players/staff this year with second rate rings not as good as what the "starters" got). Not to mention the pats are the second most valuable franchise in the NFL. Just this year Kraft threw in a extra 7th rounder the pats had to smooth over riffs in the Welker deal due to "Poisen pill" contract rumors. Pretty big turn around from the days all the networks refused to air Monday night games at foxboro because they where to wild.

We are talking about owners here. Synder owns the most popular/valuable team in the NFL. All while his team does not win. That takes some serious business sense. You cant base the best owner solely on the best record. You also need to fill the seats and run a successful franchise.

Take a look at the jets for example. Woody is a moron. He owned himself into the ground when he signed that deal to share a stadium with the Giants. Although the jets had a better season then the skins, Woody is still a moron. Same goes for Isray. Total buffoon. The chargers where on life support until last year. A ton of the teams below the skins have comparable records. Its all about the franchise when you are a owner. All things considered owning the most valuable team in the NFL puts you in the top tier.

They are the most popular / valuable franchise in the NFL. Weird I know.

[CARTEL]

They are the most popular / valuable franchise in the NFL. Weird I know.

Once the new stadium is up, I have a feeling the Cowboys will take over as being the most valuable.

25. Denise DeBartolo York and John York, 49ers

   Bring back Eddie D.

Georgia Frontiere over anyone?  Yeah, right.

Whenever the current collective bargaining agreement runs up, 2 of those 3 bottom teams could be re-located and/or sold (Cincy and Buffalo).

The owner of the Bills is 88 and he has no intentions to hand the team over to his family nor sell it (before he dies). More than likely the Bills will be sold after he dies, and the only person who could keep it in Buffalo is the Sabres owner.

Al Davis in the top 20??  That's nuts. 

You can't keep living off what you achieved 30 years ago in the NFL, bitches.

[headhuntersix]

I hope the Bills stay put... the people of Buffalo deserve it. I guess he can't leave the team to the family because of New Yorks fucked up laws....I guess they are talking about revitalizing the Water front or something..in any event I hope they stay.....great fans.
