WaterMan Posted April 10, 2011 Share Posted April 10, 2011 http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2011/...-richest-owner/ At $13.5 billion, Paul Allen is NFL’s richest owner Posted by Michael David Smith on March 10, 2011, 5:07 PM EDT Forbes is out with its annual list of the richest people in the world, and Seahawks owner Paul Allen checks in at No. 37, making him the NFL’s richest owner, with a net worth of $13.5 billion. Allen, who founded Microsoft with his pal Bill Gates in 1975, is more than $10 billion richer than the second-richest owner, Stephen Ross of the Dolphins, who checks in at $3.4 billion. Some NFL players have objected to the league’s current labor relationships being described as “millionaires vs. billionaires,” as plenty of NFL players aren’t millionaires. But it’s also worth noting that a lot of NFL owners aren’t billionaires; according to Sports Illustrated the poorest NFL owner is Pittsburgh’s Dan Rooney, who owns only a portion of the Steelers and has a net worth of $150 million. Which still makes him richer than every NFL player. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lennykravitz2004 Posted April 10, 2011 Share Posted April 10, 2011 Which makes me wonder... ...if somebody like Peyton Manning were to become an owner, how different would things be in negotiations? How would something like that go over with the other owners? So many questions, and quite intriguing, IMHO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
