Right again, Jerry!!!
He's not stupid. Building a 55,000 seat stadium is going to send ticket prices through the roof while all but guaranteeing sellouts. He's also going to control a lot of commerce associated with the stadium complex.Quote:

First it was Tom and Gisele, now JJ and Kraft. Love ain't always a many-splendored thing.:)
Moe your comment about Goodell helping owners make a lot of money started me thinking. I'm sure the equal cut each team receives from football related revenue is lucrative but is it really enough to bump up a 128 million dollar salary? Obviously, JJ doesn't think so and I can understand why. LOL
Quote:
Although the NFL’s 32 teams equally share a little over 70% of football-related revenue, the rising tide of multiples does not mean all boats are lifted equally.
Teams that can leverage their brands and stadiums to increase luxury suite, sponsorship, hospitality and non-NFL-event revenue the most will typically be worth more.
Prime example: The Dallas Cowboys, worth $8 billion, sit on top of the league for the fourteenth consecutive year and are the most valuable team in all of sports. The Cowboys also are the first team to generate over $1 billion in revenue, thanks in large part to a bevy of lucrative sponsorship's, such as a ten-year, $200 million deal with Molson Coors. In 2021, the Cowboys pulled in over $220 million in stadium advertising and sponsorship revenue, more than double that of any other team.
That explains why Snyder's financing the stadium. Jones built Jerryworld largely without public financing, so he doesn't owe the government anything. Of course, the Cowboys brand is at the pinnacle of sports marketing, but his model is for high investment to get super high return. Snyder won't collect half of what Jones is getting, but that stadium will be paying him loot hand over fist inside of 10 years.
IF he can get it built it could be a sweet investment especially now that the family are sole owners of the team. But {and maybe I'm looking in the wrong place} where did you read Snyder intends to finance out of pocket?
The reason I asked was because I was reading a recent time line on all his mess and as of October this is what it had to say...

OCTOBER 2022
ESPN released a lengthy report detailing Snyder’s efforts to influence other owners and the league office to maintain control of the team. ESPN reported, citing anonymous sources, Snyder has hired private investigators and told people he has enough information to expose fellow owners and Goodell.
Three people with knowledge of the agenda told The Associated Press there was no plan to vote on Snyder’s status at the owners meeting in New York on Oct. 18.
The investigations by White and Congress remain ongoing. The team still does not have a deal for a new stadium and ranks lowest in the NFL in attendance.
BTW he supposedly wrote a letter to the owners and denied the ESPN report. It's further up in one of the other links I posted.
I'll repost it here
https://www.cbssports.com/nfl/news/c...est-of-league/
"Snyder said he never hired private investigators to look into them or commissioner Roger Goodell"
I first heard about the stadium about six months ago. I recall them saying he wanted Maryland or Virginia to give him the land so he could build the stadium. Curiously, I cannot find anything regarding financing as I'm looking today although the reports all say he was trying to pinch the land for free. It's possible my recall was incorrect, but I would swear he wanted to pay for it out of pocket.
Looks like it's moot anyway though, because both states told him to get to steppin' and that looks like it's going to speed up his departure as an owner. I'll bet Jai can't wait for Stephen Ross to be the new worst owner in American sports.
A case for JJ could be made for the title but hey, a fine, slap on the wrist and Goodell with his new raise will look the other way for all these owners...although I'm guessing he's not particular happy with JJ right now. LOL
Good Morning;)
Don't believe I'm about to say this but I watched the Wizzards game last night so, congrats Jai. Although, I was pulling for the Pacers. LOL
Tonight's game is the Saints vs. Cardinals. Do you think these Thursday games are just kinda ho hum this year?
As a general rule I have to say yes. If Murray is having a good night though, it could be interesting.
I might not even watch. The Miami vs Cincinnati game was pretty good - with a horrible result - but the other games are total dogs. In fact, the last two Thursday night games were awful and so was the Monday night game. Ratings have to be awful, especially since the Thursday games are on Amazon Prime and not easily accessible. I'm not even planning to watch tonight's game.
For the sake of watching a game I may start it if nothing else is on. It may be the fastest channel changer if boring;)
All this fuss about snyder, and he ain't going anywhere, he banned but shows up at the game, well looks like my buddy will get another shot at ob, he may not win but he'll be exciting, but hey....them gizzards won yipeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee!!! !!!
A poem for ms_m:
Dak is back
How hot is Prescott?
He got the call to throw the ball
Are the Boyz contenders or not?
Dak is back
Cooper will now sit
He did his best to give Dak rest
It's true he never quit
Dak is back
Let the fun now begin
But one must wonder 'bout the over and under
Total games Dallas' will win
Dak is back
A poem by Jerry Oz
HAHAHAHAHAH
I love it!!!!!!!!!!
Thank You!!!!!!!:o
I know your confidence kicked up a notch. Tua's coming back on Sunday night and I'm going to hold my breath every time he goes back to pass. Huge prayers up for that young man to stay healthy.
I can only hope for the best Sunday night & that there are no serious injuries between both teams. I may not see the game because I'll be out of town & have other committments.
In other news, Christian McCaffrey to the 49'ers for 3 draft picks in 2023. Good fit?
A healthy Christian McCaffrey is a good fit for any team. But the Panthers quick started their rebuild by getting 2nd, 3rd, 4th and 5th round draft picks. Their fans should be optimistic if they can put a good management structure in place. Right now, they're a flaming mess. Carolina won the trade.
There's a rumor going around that the Steelers are "in the works" of trading WR Chase Claypool. Really? I hate these rumors. Why would the Steelers do a trade in the middle of the season? I think this is false.
WELL GANG, HINECKY WON'T WIN SUNDAY BUT HE'LL MAKE IT CLOSE, I'LL SAY[PACKERS 23- COMMANDERS 21] BUT HEY LET'S BREAK UP THEM GIZZARDS-look out NBA here we come..hehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehehe... THEY BEAT THE BULLS LAST NIGHT..I'M GOING DOWN TO GRADY'S FOR THE WINNERS SPECIAL[DON'T ASK]BEFORE IT CRAWLS OFF THE PLATE,HEHE...VICTORY IS MINE!!!
Jai you must have a cast iron stomach. LOL
OK gang, are we ready for some football?!!!!!
Moe he was in a slump for awhile but seems to be getting his mojo back so I think he will be ok and, the Steelers are supposedly looking for quite a lot for him.Quote:

I'm not watching the game but I don't think Brady is happy right now. LOL
Panthers 14 Bucs 0
Bucs finally got on the board with a FG
Touchdown!!!!!!!
Wow, the Panthers are kicking butt. Bucs are going down today!!!! LOL
Touchdown!!!!!
I can admit we caught a break on that first interception that the folks in New York and the Refs let slide and the Lions ALMOST put on a good show.:rolleyes:
BUT...

Congratulations Ms M!!
Sorry about the Falcons, Jerry.
I am not able to see any games since I’m traveling. But I see the scores.
Thanks Moe. Props to Cooper Rush for holding it down but it's good to have Dak back;)
I swear I feel like my post are disappearing.
Congrats Jai, you called the score but for the wrong team. LOL
Sorry Jerry Oz. Tonight should be interesting though.
LOL. I'm actually okay with anything that happens this year for Atlanta. Of course, winning is much better than losing, but I'm well aware we're in the beginning of a rebuild and don't expect great results for at least two years. For now, I can bite my lip and try to convince myself that losing in 2022 improves our draft position to put a better team on the field in 2023.
Since I didn't throw a remote or put a hole in the wall, I think my rationalization is working for now. I really hate losing without putting up a fight, though. Hopefully, we'll see something much better next week.
Hopefully, I'm splitting wins this week. My brother asked me over to watch at his place tonight but seeing as I'm a bad person to watch an Atlanta or Miami game with and he's a worse person to watch a Steelers game with, I'd suggest that viewing the contest from our respective domiciles would be the best thing for our relationship. How sad is that? :rolleyes:
