She could stroke a check and buy the team on her lonesome. Jordan could too I think. Isn't he worth a couple billion? I dont on keep up with these mfers money. But every so often Forbes talks about celebrity bank accounts and I get my yearly update. If if you're talking hip hop folks, a conversation without Jay z and his 3/4 of a billion seems incomplete. No she couldn't. It would be leveraging her entire net worth. Which is retarded. Which she cannot afford to do. She would have to front something like $1mm up front and have so much saved up etc. There is no way in hell she could afford it by herself. You're insane Jordna is barely worth a billion. With a good chunk of that wrapped up in the Marlin's and hornets. He has gambling issues and there are a ton of issues about his personal life. It'd be the ultimate slap in the face to remove Richardson because he is a creep and jerk to hire a bigger creep and jerk like Jordan. The guy is a sleeve. Edited December 18, 2017 by Boyst62

You're insane Oprah net worth: $2.7B. I don't think she'd have a problem. FYI MJ's worth $1.3B. Jay-Z & Beyonce = $1B. Dr. Dre = $0.8B Snoop is the poor guy with only $135MM Edited December 18, 2017 by PromoTheRobot

His net worth at the time wouldn’t have covered it. They can only take on $250M in debt. Diddy is a realistic option if he has the right group with him. He will need someone at least as wealthy as him and then other minority owners. If someone like Oprah or Jordan got involved it could be done. Im guessing that someone like the Pritzker Family buys it. They were really (quietly) involved in the Bills bidding. PTR. See above. Winfrey could not finance the purchase. 1 minute ago, PromoTheRobot said: Oprah net worth: $2.7B. I don't think she'd have a problem. FYI MJ's worth $1.3B. MJ has over almost $200mm in the hornets. A few mill in the Marlin's. $$$ invested in golf courses etc. He couldn't take out enough of a loan to come close. And even if he did he wouldn't be able to purchase it by league rules. And Oprah having her entire portfolio invested in the team and it'll still require more than that... Yeah. Not gonna happen

And his gambling addictions make him a liability Oorsh has $2.5b and still not enough there to buy the team If you're not pushing $10b you're not gonna get no where. And insay that because Panthers will sell for more than $3b. They're in the banking capital of the south, one of the largest outside of NYC. Every gsme is sold out. Suites are sold out. $10,000 club boxes are nothing new with a PSL. The team has more commercial buy in than most teams and is spread upon two states (that generally don't give a !@#$ about them). The Panthers are an expensive team Certainly much more expensive than the Bills. If you can believe the on-line BS, Oprah is about $2.8 billion, with MJ about half of that. Oprah could be the lead at 30% or more, but who says she even wants to? There’s a reason the grocery store check out line is full of celeb stuff. It fascinates many people for some reason. I used to travel to Charlotte a lot when I was with First Union. Funny stories about the back and forth with Ed Crutchfield and Hugh McColl. Big time banking center for sure.

You mean the part about not being able to leverage her full worth? I don't see how $2.7B is not enough, especially if she puts a group together. Seems like she has more than enough. 1

Especially if (note "if") the 1.5 billion valuation is correct. But I think I was mistaken as to the depths of #23s pockets.

atlbillsfan1975 Posted December 19, 2017 Posted December 19, 2017 Is there any single Athlete or Entertainer that could buy an NFL franchise given the guidelines to purchase?

Just what they need, a drug infestation in a front office! The money is the real issue. If he had the money, they wouldn’t care. The NFL’s phoney morality stuff is a joke. They would have allowed Charles Manson to own a team, if he had the money. Remember when gambling and Vegas was an issue? The almighty dollar ended that morality crusade quickly. Plus, you can’t get much worse than Irsay.

I’d say Jay-Z/Beyoncé is probably the likeliest. They are up over $1B and have an opportunity to continue growing it. http://www.businessinsider.com/richest-celebrities-in-the-world-2016-8/#1-madonna-20
T-Bomb Posted December 19, 2017 Posted December 19, 2017 Tiger Woods could have bought a team but B word stole half his cash.
Xwnyer Posted December 19, 2017 Posted December 19, 2017 Richardson only owns 48% rest is by a group of investors. Someone could buy just his 48% or buy out all the minority owners.
T-Bomb Posted December 19, 2017 Posted December 19, 2017 (edited) I hope some 3rd wave feminist ownership group buys the team, fills all the important positions with women, then the franchise becomes a laughingstock for decades to come. Edited December 19, 2017 by T-Bomb
