These teams are valued at $1-2++ billion and these owners just hand the reigns to their completely unqualified kids and shit. Here Jimmy, take the Lakers for a test drive!

still, this isn't just fake money. some of these franchises are highly profitable. and even though jerry buss has a controlling stake in the lakers, there are minority shareholders who he owes a fiduciary duty. how can he just let his son run the team like this? fucking dumb.

i don't really give a fuck about the money. it's just these idiot kids almost always run the teams into the ground "trying to build their own legacy".

yeah, well, that's one of the perks of being born into wealth. you can fuck up incredibly badly, but it makes no difference, because you're still fucking loaded.

it's a family owned business, most individually held companies will give Jimmy the reigns at some point, most just aren't as big as pro sports

fuck. if i had worked my ass off to build up a business empire so that i could purchase a pro sports team, i wouldn't hand the team over to some knucklehead loser like Jim Buss, even if he were my son.

with revenue sharing in the NFL at least, it doesn't take a genius businessman to make money

i know there's revenue sharing for TV deals and shit in the NFL, but isn't there value from being a winning team separate and apart from that revenue stream? there's got to be. otherwise every NFL franchise would have the same valuation.

pro sports are prob corrupt as shit so owners are naturally wary of letting outsiders into their world.

you're aware that most businesses aren't actually run by the guy at the top in any meaningful way right? You leave a team of pros who do all of the work. The owner just has to not *insist* on doing something retarded and his job is done.
