    I'm offended the Wilpon is not a main option.

    all this, despite having one only 1 playoff game in the last 17+ years.
    to be fair,much of those things(being on national tv,super profitable,marketed,recognized)were in place long before jerry bought the team.not saying he's bad at it,he's good on making sure the cowboys make bank with all the losing.just dont give him all the credit for making it the brand that it is

    uh, no? actually the guy who owned it before him was losing so much money that he was forced to sell the team. they were not near the media darlings they are now. they were famous of course, but not even close to the money making machine they are now...

    jerry bout the team for pennies on the dollar basically, and know they are a multibillion dollar business.

    Primetime, cHi8DaL5LA420 I miss you guys.
    Not the same without you.

    I don't believe this to be so but a large segment of the Pirates fan base would say Bob Nutting.

    They're loaded with players that people constantly talk about. Hype =/= talent. They're loaded with good PR. I'll give you that much. As for the worst owner, Dan Snyder was in the running until recently.

    Favourite Teams:

    Boston Red Sox: 27-17
    Indianapolis Colts: Decent draft, no new wide reciever though.
    Detroit Pistons: Looking forward to the draft and whoever the new coach will be
    Ottawa Senators: Down 2 to 1 to Pittsburgh, Game 4 on Wednesday Night, Game 5 on Friday Night and Game 6 on Sunday Night (If necessary)

    Beautiful:

    Jeremey Jacobs should be at least 10 options up there because he's the main reason why the NHL has lockouts. He is the "head" owner pushing for the NHL to be Snidley Whiplash like villains.
