So because Robert Kraft stumbled across Bill Belichick, he is the #1 owner? Where was he ranked when he pushed Parcells out the door and stepped over Bill Belichick because he thought Pete the Poodle was a legitimate replacement?
Aw c'mon, Rich. You gotta love a guy that hires his family full of idiots in to run a half billion dollar franchise. I hear his 8 year old neice is in charge of stadium sales.
And how does Jerry Jones rank so high? Jimmy Johnson did all the work back in the day. I'll give Jerry credit for that hire, but do we not hold him accountable for Dave Campo, Chan Gailey and now Wade Phillips? Those are three awful decisions.
I do not know how anybody knows what other owners think of there counterparts so I think that this article is sought of a made up since the writer certainly does not know all 32 owners closely so he has no way of judging there business acuman except from the outside looking in. I would say Woody gets MAJOR demerits for AG/Herm & Bradway. To early to tell if he made up for it with Man & Tan but one thing is for sure he pissed away the 1st 6 years of his ownership cause of the AG/Herm/Bradway hires. If winning CHAMPIONSHIPs is the way to rate the owner then recently Kraft is at top of the pile. Jones for his 3 in the 90s. The Rooney's for 5 in like 25 years would also then make the top 5. If the Niners are still owned by the same person who owned them when they won 5 he to has to be up there. The Denver owner for his 2 should also make the top 10 or 5 list. All others then would fall in a I guess worse, worser & the worst rating depending on your likes & dislikes of the team & the person.
No, because his team worth more than a Billion and 3 Lombardi's helps. The five most valuable NFL franchises, according to a Forbes magazine survey: 1. Redskins, $1.423 billion 2. Patriots, $1.176 billion 3. Cowboys, $1.173 billion 4. Texans, $1.043 billion 5. Eagles, $1.024 billion FORBES
Yes but his team would not be worth what it is and he would have no Lombardi's had he not gotten lucky with Belly. I think the poster that brought up the pushing Parcells out the door and then hiring Pete already had a team quit on him Carroll proved Kraft was not a good owner until stealing Belly from the Jets.
I don't think this writer has any clue regarding the crooked politics that blocked the building of the west side stadium. If your ranking on financials as some here have argued you can't argue against the financial advantages of sharing a stadium ( even though I was rooting for something closer to LI)
There are two sides to every situation. I'm VERY glad BB decided to move on from the JETS and coach the Patriots, and I'm not about to imagine what would have been without him, but I still can't figure out why BB wanted out of the NYJ organization. He did want out or he wouldn't have made the decision he did. Wasn't anything offered to try to keep him?
