SoCalSkins Posted November 3, 2022 Share Posted November 3, 2022 That people article says Bezos would bring in Jay Z as part of his ownership group. It’s game over unless Dan wants to take less money to giver the finger to Bezos. I think Bezos will pay a premium and that will be that. 6 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Warhead36 Posted November 3, 2022 Share Posted November 3, 2022 I like Byron Allen too. He seems like the guy who would do things the right way: hire a real GM, let him hire the coach etc. But he don't have Bezos money. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I understand it the principle owner has to provide 30% of the buy out. Yea, it's all interesting and we'll see where this lands. If I was Allen, I'd be tapping on Jay Z too who seems to be in a really good position to participate for any potential buyers.

NickyJ Posted November 3, 2022 Share Posted November 3, 2022 Just about anything will do, but Bezos owning Thursday night football, a team that plays on Thursday night football, and the local newspaper that covers the team, feels a bit icky to me. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tshile Posted November 3, 2022 Share Posted November 3, 2022 I’m not wasting any time figuring out which owner would be better. instead I am putting my faith in the NFL and its desire to not screw this up. im assuming they’ll pick the right person, and then give them assistance in selecting high quality people to fill important roles (GM, president, etc) I have to imagine the NFL is very interested in doing whatever it can to make sure this franchise is on the right track moving forward. By the way. The day following the biggest day in the franchises previous 23 years, and Doc Walker is on his show complaining about how he’d rather just talk football. what a tool he is. I used to defend his shtick but he’s just a tool. 4 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This isn’t an expansion team nor is it a forced sale at this point. The NFL doesn’t get to decide anything. Dan makes the decision on his own. The NFL gets to vote to approve or disapprove of the new ownership group. I highly doubt they reject anyone. They want to be rid of Dan without any litigation.

I hadn't heard that name since "Real People," so I've missed anything and everything he did for the last 40 years LOL! I didn't know Byron Allen had it like that!

Spaceman Spiff Posted November 3, 2022 Share Posted November 3, 2022 Live look in at Spiff if Bezos buys the team: That said, for all of the talk about Bezos being a potential owner, there's been very little information about him wanting to buy an NFL team. There's been a lot of speculation about it, but there's been little to no action from him actually saying that he wants into the NFL as an owner. There's been rampant speculation, an article from CBS in 2019, earlier speculation this year about the Seahawks, etc. I'm of the belief (and I'd love to be wrong) that if he REALLY wanted an NFL team he'd have done it by now. Especially when there have been more attractive options available recently. Like, why not buy the Broncos, a team that hasn't been dwelling in **** with a ****ty stadium for the past 20+ years? Unless the idea that Bezos hates Snyder that much to the point where he'd only be interested in buying the Commies, I just don't get it. Why take on a team that's been miserable for years, morale amongst the fan is at an all time low, terrible stadium with the need for a new one...I guess some people like buying fixer-uppers but I don't know if that's what Bezos would want to do. Long story short, I'm not believing any Bezos talk or speculation (even as much as I want to) if there's no official report of him throwing his hat in the ring. 7 minutes ago, CRobi21 said: Well **** me then. 5 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stone Cold Posted November 3, 2022 Share Posted November 3, 2022 According to the People article, they’ve already received calls from potential buyers. It’s so surreal…but we’re gonna have new ownership soon! There’s light at the end of the tunnel baby!!! 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is no longer the CEO of Amazon. The NFL wants him in. The NFL also has a previous partnership with Jay Z. It will be a unanimous approval if Dan takes the deal. The biggest conflict rule was waived previously banning owning another sports franchise in another sport. If anything being in the board of Amazon is a positive for them. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
