Agreed. As for John Kent Cooke, the stories I've heard from players back in those days was that he was a complete figurehead.
His dad didn't trust him to make any big decisions and kept him out of the loop for the most part. I don't believe we would have been any better off necessarily with John Kent Cooke and if his ownership meant we would have Norv and it would be anything like 1998 then we're definitely better off without him, without both of them.
Kind of funny how Cooke is picking now to speak up.
