And if they do, is it to the extent that they'd want to force an owner out... ? Maybe some of them also like having a couple of awfully run franchises in the league. Like if they go through a tough stretch they can always feel/say "well at least it's not Snyderly bad"...
If you have $1,000 dollars, you still want $1,100 dollars instead. And if you have 1 billion dollars you want 1.1 billion. You don't want to drop down to 900 million.

I think the richer people get, on average, not every person, the more they won't put up with losing money. So I do think if the other owners are not making money off of him or possibly losing money, that they would make him sell. I think that's actually the only route. Not too many Donald Sterling examples in pro sports here.

It is a fundamental fact of business, profits that could reasonably be made but aren't ARE seen as losses.

Re: We lost again kc postgame

If there was a handbook on how to take down a franchise this team would have a all time seller!!

The Only move I remember Snyder doing that at the time I agreed with 100% was Bringing back Coach Gibbs . Everything else seemed desperate and mismanaged.. Looking towards the future is bleak .. let’s say Snyder keeps team another 10 years what is going to change and be different? NOTHING WILL ! It is sorta fitting that the team lost its name and identity that we all grew up on .. and now we are left with a burned down shell of what many decades ago was one of the Top franchises on the plantet ..a lot of us watched this year by year go down the toilet .. The only real hope is Snyder selling team .. only then can the healing start ..

Ten years? That is wishful thinking. Lol

I think SD's point was just that Billionaires understand and pay attention to their bottom line more than the average person. They are less likely to overlook or put up with losses that could be prevented. For a lot of them, that is why they are Billionaires.

I sure hope you're right. But I think, unless there's something that leaves them close to no other choice from a PR standpoint, protecting the status of the owner will still be stronger for them than lost bucks.
