My pick for the Carolina Panthers recently opened majority ownership position:

 

Current Carolina Panthers minority share holder Tim Belk. 

Relatively young (60) local guy. Would never move the team. Family has strong ties to the Carolinas. 

Already has the Belk Bowl at Bank of America Stadium. Obviously loves football. 

Recently retired from Belk. Plenty of free time. 

Family is worth billions.

All the talk about Sean Combs or other celebrities completely misses this one important thing. Having millions is not going to do it. It's going to take a billion to even get into the real bidding. 

And with Belk, he already owns a minority share, adding in JR's percentage would make him a very strong majority holder.

That is true but celebrities/athletes could easily go the Jeter route.

They would probably increase his share to 49% and bring in a new minority owner to make up the difference.

So Tim Belk would have to buy Jerrys full 47 percent or does just needs to own a larger percentage than everyone else?

Jeter has no real say on what goes on with the Marlins.  They just got his face out there.  The real owners are behind the scenes.

Yeah, they got a good deal there.  They have Jeter as the face and he gets blamed for everything.

...and the fans are going in on him right now heehee!!!  Trading away all their good hitters.  If they are not now, they will be the Cleveland Browns of Baseball next year.

He would need to increase his share to become a majority owner.  I'm assuming Richardson's kids and wife aren't going to sell their minority shares and that no other owner will sell their share either.

Yes, it is sad.  It would be one thing if they were getting good deals.  They did not get enough for Ozuna but at least they got something.  Basically gave Stanton and Gordon away.

It is far more complicated, of course, than just increasing a minority share.  Richardson's share of the team is held as a partnership which contains many incorporated entities within the partnership.  The two main incorporated entities are Richardson's LLC which owns the majority share and the second LLC which is made up of the several individuals owning minority shares in different proportions.  Levine appears to be the largest minority owner within the minority LLC.  The Belk family appears to be the third or fourth in terms of size of minority owners, owning about 5% of the franchise.

      this     I never cease to be amazed at the number of people who will run up their blood pressure to get to the grocery store 30 seconds faster or are racing to get to work like it won’t be there at 8:02.   The only thing I’ve ever done that I think added more years to my life besides quitting smoking, was to learn to go with the flow behind the wheel.

      The term you're looking for is "malinger(ed)", and he didn't.  I'm not sure why Panthers fans act like jaded ex girlfriends.  The dude is clearly injury prone as his time in San Fransico also proves. It's not like he got to San Fran and stopped having problems.

      My long and rambling post:   The guy is all heart, and I wouldn’t be surprised if he came back even better next year. He’s exactly the guy you lock up. The money won’t ever change the way he plays.  It was a big fumble, but what 1,000 yard back fumbles once in an entire season?  Pride. This team is FINALLY seeing guys who obviously take the game very seriously. Hunt, Chuba, Thielen, Brown, Horn (CB), Coker, Bryce (IMHO). Bye bye, Spider-Man. I don’t see these dudes being OK with teammates half-assing practice or in games. I can see Brown and Horn coming over to talk to somebody.  Good team? Ummm, maybe, but will still likely lose more close games than they win unless this last draft turns in to LOB part 2. That’s a stretch.  Pretty good/decent team. Yes. They finished the season as a pretty good team. I know I sound like a broken record harping back to it, but going in to ATL and putting a 40 burger on them en route to an OT win. A bad Panthers team would have had their brakes beaten off. We’ve seen it.  Rose colored glasses on and bonging a 40 of hopium: There are watershed moments that occur that change the course of franchises, both good and bad. If Fox doesn’t pull Rodney at halftime, the epic journey that was 2003 never happens. On the negative side, Cam taking that one hit from Watt was the end of any and all Panthers relevancy and we’ve been the biggest losers in all of pro sports as a result. Watershed moments. LOB draft. Vinny goes down and the goat is born.  Will the ATL game be the spark that this franchise has desperately needed? Could it be that they hit the mega million jackpot with Princley and Scourton as eat QBs for breakfast? Sure would be nice having 2 all-pro edge guys on the cheap for the next 4 years.  A lot of unknowns, but at least it actually feels  fun again.
