I didn't know who Leonard Tose was - so i looked him up. The Wikipedia entry has this:
"In 1985, after a failed attempt to swap franchises with Ralph Wilson (whose Buffalo Bills were then under severe distress),[6] Tose was forced to sell the Eagles to Norman Braman and Ed Leibowitz, highly successful automobile dealers from Florida, for a reported $65 million to pay off his more than $25 million in gambling debts at Atlantic City casinos."
Anyone ever heard of this before? I have not.
