From a business standpoint, theres no better purchase than buying an NFL team. NFL is a print press. Even if buying a team took me down to my last dime, Id be right back up to a billion in no time.



I want to say San Fran, because they have the historical aspect, great uniforms, great city. But I cant stand their fans.


Seattle, on the other hand, don't like their uniforms, name, stadium, mascot. But they have really good fans.


Id choose Seattle. And change them to the Supersonics football team.
Wait, I change my answer to this. I'd buy the seahawks and I move them out of seattle. Suck it Seahawks fans.

This was sent from my cell pjone so please excise any typeos or other errors.

In all honesty, I would love to own a franchise of some sort, basketball, baseball or football. Would be sweet!

If I was a billionaire, I'd buy a suite at each professional franchise in town, rename it the ASFN Suite, and distribute tickets through this website.

Funny, but that is what happened with the Cardinals in the early 1930s. Charles Bidwill, though partly invested financially with the Bears, had an opportunity to purchase the Cardinals. He did, sold his Bears stock, but reportedly still rooted for his old team, even AGAINST the Cardinals if the situation called for it. The story goes that one season, his last-place Cardinals nearly upset the Bears and would've knocked them out of the championship game. He came into the Cards' losing locker room afterwards breathing a sigh of relief, saying "whew, that was a close one!"

It was only a few years later that he would start publicly pulling for his Cardinals.
