FiddySicks Posted April 13, 2023 Share Posted April 13, 2023 Imagine being such a detestable person that you have to sell your toy, and you end up getting six billion dollars for it. Must be a real nice life. Quote On 11/19/2012 at 7:23 PM, oldschoolvikings said: She’s still half convinced “Chris Creamer” is a porn site.)

GDAWG Posted April 13, 2023 Share Posted April 13, 2023 So how come we don't know anything about who else is in the Canadian dude's group? Like is there a person of color in the group? (that seems to be a new requirement for NFL ownership these days). Harris at least has Magic Johnson and they know each other from the NBA. There were rumors of a Jay Z and Bezos team up.

It’s like the owners of the Diamondbacks who have gone out of their way to not structurally maintain Chase Field for the last 18 years, and now when it’s falling apart, they’re begging for a new one that’s publicly funded (And remember, the original estimate for age of the building was 60 years AT MINIMUM with proper maintenance). And these municipalities keep falling for it! That’s the part that I genuinely don’t know what to do about. People are just stupid and desperate for sports entertainment, I guess. 1 1 Quote On 11/19/2012 at 7:23 PM, oldschoolvikings said: She’s still half convinced “Chris Creamer” is a porn site.)

The billionaire class somehow keeps growing and a bunch of aspirational rubes think they'll be showered with riches any day now just for going along with them. Though sometimes you hit the jackpot and get free vacations from Nazi memorabilia hoarders, so I suppose it works out.

Dynasty Posted April 13, 2023 Share Posted April 13, 2023 It seems like Harris has quite a presence in the Mid-Atlantic region. He is from Chevy Chase (MD suburb outside of DC), went to school at the University of Pennsylvania, and owns sports teams in Philadelphia and New Jersey. I am guessing that a new stadium for the Commanders would be among his top priorities? Can really only hope. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GDAWG Posted April 13, 2023 Share Posted April 13, 2023 Once this is finalized (and it seems like it will be), Harris will now have owned teams in three Major League sports, all of whom have football teams in the same division, which is the NFC East.

Using inflation calculators, the number wasn't as straight forward to get as you might have assumed, but $800 million in May of 1999 (when Synder purchased the franchise) is roughly equivalent to $1.45 billion today. Sucks a guy like that made $4.5 billion running Washington into the ground.

What gets me is instead of fixing it for the WBC you put trash cans all around the stadium. Then their attitude is we’ll let you know in a couple months if we want to move to Salt River where the Native Americans will take care of us. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BBTV Posted April 14, 2023 Share Posted April 14, 2023 There's some reports (not sure how credible) that he's 1B in debt (not sure if him personally, or the team). Being in debt isn't rare for super wealthy people who's main assets aren't liquid, but even if he is that far in the hole, and has normal operating debt from the team, he's still stuffing billions in his pockets on his way out the door. I wonder what this does to the values of the other league teams. Are the Giants and Eagles now worth $8B?

tBBP Posted April 14, 2023 Share Posted April 14, 2023 I know that the point of investment is that it [hopefully] grows and accrues value, but the fact that we've reached the point where any big-pro sports team is worth over a billion dollars, let alone six, is still wild to me...
