Mike Brown

When he was threatening to move to Baltimore if he didn't get his sweetheart stadium deal, he said - 

"We're not going to sit idly by and accept a grossly inferior situation, one that risks our very existence as a business."
"If nothing is done here quickly, our intention would be to take whatever action we think is best for our ballclub."

Imagine if he applied that same mindset when it comes to all aspects of the franchise, and not just profits and revenues.  Whatever

This was during the time period when Mike Brown was actively hoarding cash back to buy out minority owners. The team was the worst in the league. Mike’s only goal was to build the cash up. Whether that was in Cincy, Baltimore, or somewhere else was irrelevant.

The sad thing is for as shrewd as business tactician he is, he’s an equally terrible GM and personnel evaluator.
Through 2023

Mike Brown’s Owner/GM record: 32 years  223-303-4  .419 winning pct.
