It'd be like winning a perpetual lottery. Sure, but in this case the owner is dead and the family wants to cash out their winning lottery ticket Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hyperion Posted January 31 Report Share Posted January 31 I don't get why you'd ever sell unless you had no interest in football. These valuations aren't going down. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Operations more expensive. Cities are starting to really push back on financing. Public pushback on CTE/Players union bloating retirement expenses. It's not the cash flow machine it was even 10 years ago, and I could see a future when Americans can't afford to use their UBI on expensive ass tickets.

And that is just the cash flow. Also have to add in the increase in value of the team to determine total return on investment. oldschool, and Callidus 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are cash printing machines. You also have to add in the money the team makes you will in all likelihood keep increasing every year. It may take years to make more than the 7billion but its a certainty you would eventually. This isn't even a tough choice for delayed gratification. Obviously their situation makes it not an option though. oldschool 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
