When did Marvin become the fallguy?

So the - He owns the business and can do what he wants...doesn't apply.

And...to say an NFL owner doesn't care about his customers and then call him a good businessman... Good business people ALWAYS care about the customers.

Have you ever heard of an NFL owner losing money? It doesn't happen, because the salary cap is set at a percentage of total revenue. The owners are essentially guaranteed a profit.

The good owners, who want to win...manipulate the salary cap and invest a little more into their product so they can field a better team.

It is true that tax payers foot the bill for stadiums in most instances ,but that isn't the fault of the team . That part is on the electorate for voting clowns into office who are easily bought and paid for by the NFL and teams . But that also happens with plenty of other businesses as well . How many Wallyworlds have been allowed to push small shops out of business because they don't have to pay taxes on development of the property ? That scam has been going on all around the country . People are duped into it for the idea that it'll bring jobs jobs jobs and if the company decides to move out for any reason you're left with a nice shiny building with zero tenants.
