I see a lot of people saying “sell the team”, and I’m all for the need to make drastic changes. However, every team has a salary cap, so beyond hiring people to actually run/coach the team, what other influence does the ownership bring? Can it make that big of a difference who owns it?
honestly it’s a 50 50 shot…if you get owners that genuinely want to win, it could be good to have someone who knows how to hire GM’s, a team president, the staff to put together a good coaching staff and team, that’s willing to spend some money and draft smart and make a consistent competitor. if you get an owner that just wants to make money, it could backfire big time. the McCaskey’s might not be good at running a franchise, but i genuinely believe it’s more because they’re clueless on how to do it; a new owner that only sees dollar signs could run the team as bad or worse, and do it because they want to save as much money as possible to line their pockets.
