ESPN.com ranks the 10+ best owners in the league


Recommended Posts

thats a silly list... they might as well have asked us. Carries about the same merit.

We'll see these kinda stories coming up until the lockout gets resolved.

which reminds me... Does anyone think that the list for 100 greatest players of 2010-2011 is kind of long and stupid? How do you follow that up every year? Its garbage.

i don't see us. i guess i'm looking in the wrong place. doesn't matter though. if Richardson is a bad owner then why do the rest of the owners have him speaking for them?

JR is a good owner....he just has taken an epic PR hit in the last year and a half.

They did. That turned out to be a disaster, so they muzzled him.

Jerry Richardson is also the #1 reason why we currently have a lockout going on.

I think this is pretty valuable with a 'small market' team...

#12...given the years of existence and where we are located. I'm thinking Jerry has done a tremendous job at growing this franchise.

All depends on what you mean by being a "good" owner. Is Richardson good at squeezing every last bit of revenue from every source available to him? Sure, he's definitely a business god. How does that help anyone but him and his investors though? Does that help the fans? Nope, he raised ticket prices last year. Does that help the team? Nope, he gutted it and we went 2-14. Does that help the league? Nope, he's spearheading the lockout and making people think less highly of the league everyday.

If being a good owner means you're good at making money, then Jerry Richardson is a GREAT owner. But by every other parameter, he's been lousy for quite some time.

    • Not sure who said it first, but Tepper is the correct answer. Still, I'm gonna go with Kasay keeping it inbounds. If, you subscribe to the butterfly effect version of time travel consequences.... When we win SBXXXVIII everybody's lives change: Moose never breaks his leg, We win it all again in 05. Tommy Jone is unknown and Peppers stays home, Champs once more 2008. No artificial pig heart turning JR into a creepy weirdo, no lockout, no Clausen. Fox and Jake ride off into the sunset on their own terms. No 2-14, no #1 pick. But, no laptop, no Blinn, 3 years behind The Golden Calf of Bristol, we still get Cam. JR let's him grow his locs like he always wanted, Smitty sees Cam in a new light. Dreads swinging, (and Smitty with his 3 Lombardis behind him) Cam is old enough to get those calls. No Manning narrative, Cotchery TD, PI against Talib on Philly Brown, 10,000 RTP calls and Kony Ealy SB50 MVP. No Jeans Fridays, no Tepper. KB doesn't slip on his own meatsweat mid-route in SD, Cam becomes the 1st QB to win 10 straight SBs. Retiring after being elected 47th president of the US of A, Cam ushers in the Permanent Proletarian Revolution across the globe, Xi Jinping bows in awe. "ẄøŘƙƐṛ§ őF ŧĤə ŵØRłð, ŮŊÏŦƐ!!!"
    • Yeah your right the owner was copping hand shandies while all this was going down 
    • I mean not surprised the Patriots took him in and aren't trying to push him out. They've been the most morally bankrupt team in the NFL for a long while. Wouldn't be surprised if Vrabel has his own dirt on Kraft/Brady and other assholes from that organization over the last couple decades.
