Bezos and Gibbs were listed separately in a Forbes article about the Panthers sale, Bezos owns the Washington Post, Gibbs would be the Face of the Franchise Owner (or GM)

HMMMMM????

Jeff Bezos: The Amazon founder is now the richest person on the planet at $99.8 billion as of Monday morning. Bezos has not expressed interest in buying a pro sports team but could certainly afford it and has made outside the box investments like his purchase of the Washington Post. Bezos could be an invaluable resource to the NFL as it sorts out its future streaming options for its games.

Joe Gibbs: The Hall of Fame football coach is a local and well-liked, but doesn't have the funds to headline a bid. He is also 77 years old and still busy with his Nascar squad.

A. Jeff Bezos would never enter an ownership group, he could buy the Redskins outright.

B. Jeff Bezos according to Google makes roughly 275 mil a day, so he could buy the Redskins on about 10 days salary.

C. Why would Bezos want to be part of an ownership group when he doesn't need to be?

D. Would you really want Jeff frickin' Bezos as your majority owner? I'm not convinced he'd be any better than Snyder.

I think if he didn't want to run the team or oversee it, bringing Gibbs in as your partner would be the way to do it.

My mind is blowing thinking about this thing that WILL NOT happen. If sometime today it was announced that Bezos was going to buy the team (99 percent silent owner) with Gibbs as a partner (1 percent acting owner) I would absolutely die.

And, I know that a lot of you will disagree about this part, but if that announcement were followed with a name change (that keeps the logo and just makes the name more palatable - switch back to Braves even) and a plan to move back to the RFK location, I would fall out with happiness.
