    An NFL team is a money printing machine. The earnings floor is way too high to induce anyone to quit. Basically the only way to lose money on an NFL team is to do what David Tepper has done, just more aggressively: giant guaranteed contracts and an itchy trigger finger. But you’d have to hand out $27M/4y years guaranteed to everyone from the HC to the groundskeeper to bankrupt David Tepper. And even if he ran dry, he’s a Wall Street chump - he’d just sell it to a Chinese private equity group who’d strip it down to the frame to show profitability and sell it again.

    We’re stuck with him. Our only hope is that he decides this shit is too much of a headache and hires a president (other than his fuckin’ wife) to run it for him and they just give him the checks.
