Let's start collecting money!

I'm in for a hundy.

Eh. I'm already an owner of a more successful team.

Would be thrilled if the McCaskey's sold.

But it ain't happening until Virginia is in the ground.

Reading between the lines here, I'll give my take...

The timing of this report is interesting. It's not a rumor, but a fact that there has been a standing offer to the family for years now, of $2 billion for the team. It's never been confirmed who it's from, I've thought for a while it might be from Neil Bluhm. If it is indeed Bluhm, I would imagine he (or associates) is chirping about Arlington.

Being realistic, the family couldn't have done great financially last year. I think the kids/grandkids realize they need to sell while Virginia is alive and before Biden's any Biden's estate tax (or other wealth tax proposals) pass. This is reckless speculation, maybe Virginia isn't well?

Lot going on here. Once Virginia passes, it'll be a mess that the NFL may need to intervene with, regarding all the shares being split among a lot of people.

Wait to see.

The Sultan

A lot of family owned businesses with little cost basis are looking to sell. Or are planning to hold for the long term.

So the timing makes sense.

The best thing that could probably happen for the Bears is a sale.  It's possible a new owmer could be worse but seems unlikely.  Q

You mean the former tight end for the Broncos thinks a HOF QB would be good for the Broncos?

He really went out on a limb there!

I say and ask this as nicely as possible...

Could you start your own thread called "Herman Cain's NFL news nuggets"? Or something like that? I think something like 9 out of the last 10 posts in this thread have just been link drops by you.

I second this.

If it is a subject that will invite discussion go ahead and post here. Otherwise it is just clutter.

Florida State contracts with one of the Seminole tribes within the Seminole nation. Several of the other Seminole tribes  oppose it.

I was more saying that Florida State isn't the best model.  Central Michigan and Utah do similar arrangements better.

That being said,  I doubt WFT goes anywhere close to this direction

I didn't know CMU and Utah did the licensing .

I would like to see Washington become the Warriors. Actually not a big fan of Washington so I don't have any skin in the game no pun intended .

So they axe Warriors because it is offensive to certain groups in particular Native Americans, but its OK for Golden State. Go figure.
