This was an awesome deal, especially comparing it to his 'other' investments. I was thinking about this (buying a sports team) when that lottery reached a billion. I would have totally bought something if I had won :) Title: Re: John Elway Passes Up Great Deal Post by: DaLittle B on February 04, 2016, 11:01:53 am I never go to ESPN,as I have a great hatred for them. ;D So thanks for sharing this...
I find it interesting,but that was his last year playing,would the league have allowed ownership stake from a current player?

Wasn't a problem when Jordan did it with the Wizards...all though the NBA and NFL aren't really apples to apples.I find it interesting,but that was his last year playing,would the league have allowed ownership stake from a current player?

Yes it was. The NBA made Jordan sell his stake in the Wizards before he could play. Title: Re: John Elway Passes Up Great Deal Post by: Tenshot13 on February 04, 2016, 11:40:33 am Yes it was.
