Is This How It All Ends?

#20

Kane, I don't believe any team in the league can actually lose money anymore with the TV deal that the NFL has now and he just wants a bigger profit to keep up with the big kids. It's a different world now from when the Jags started and the money is blown up to paying a 80 million buy out isn't much at all, and I think he is playing multiple angles to this situation. First he hasn't actually put money into Lot J or the ship yards yet (Which should of been years ago) so he is playing chicken with the city about funding just like he will when he wants a new or renovated stadium. London is the NFL's experiment so he is using that for extra profit and for the people saying "if he was going to move the team to London he would of already", there is no way the other owners want that and just the logistics to playing and moving all these teams back and forth over the ocean is a nightmare not to mention the huge tax hike for the team and players and the team would be worse than they are now, (Maybe in 15 - 20 years when they have figured everything out a team will be international or multiple teams will). He also can put money into things like lot J and still move since it will be an investment property that will make him money either way (plus have the city from a chunk of the bill to build his investment). He could totally buy up all the property downtown and develop it and it would just be a business investment and could totally be separate from the Jags. And hearing he is trying to build on his return of investment is a crock, his return of investment is the fact that the team is worth 3 times what he paid for it and like other good owners who care about winning and don't take the competitive advantage away from their team by giving up home games or keeping a defunct front office and coaching staff. And unlike baseball the huge TV profit sharing and salary cap makes small markets more competitive so to see a team be run so poorly is heartbreaking.
