Now, where can I get my latest copy of The JFK Coverup: How the Illuminati, Mafia, Putin, Trump, and Shad Khan Pulled the Greatest Fake Assassination Off (with foreword by the genticially altered corpse of Elvis Presley)

Do the math yourself, then. Shad's buy-in for a seat at the NFL table was $770m for one of the worst teams in the league by almost any standard. Still, the NFL being what it is, only 4 years later, Forbes valued the Jaguars at 1.48 billion. In 2018 the number is likely somewhere north of $2b. Shad's investments in the city-owned stadium and surroundings have been impressive by Podunk standards, but actually pale in comparison to the increased value of the team itself. Plus, the big payoff is not Podunk but London. The London Jaguars will be the most valuable NFL franchise by far. The market size is potentially 50x larger. And all Shad has to do is drop a few doggie dollars here and there to keep the Podunkians happy until the time is right for London. This isn't driven so much by Shad but by the league itself. They will grease the skids the whole way. In 10 years the London NFL team will be worth $10 billion and Shad will be one of the most powerful owners. The Podunkians watching on their 8k screens will sit proudly in their ragged #DTWD t-shirts and dream of the once a year trip to Khan Stadium at Wembley to see the mighty London Shads in person. Don't fight it, it's the future of the NFL. Evolve or die.
