December 29, 200619 yr I'd make this a poll, but I really dont want to sit down and type out over 100 choices, so having said that.... Who in your opinion are the 5 best owners in all of professional sports, focusing on MLB, NFL, NHL, and the NBA. Please when you list your names, give a little reasoning behind your choices. You dont have to list 5, but please dont list more than 5. This should be a lot of fun.
December 29, 200619 yr Jerry Jones Mark Cuban Mickey Arison George Steinbrenner These are in no particular order just ones that came to my mind first.
December 29, 200619 yr George Steinbrenner, Mark Cuban, Jerry Jones, Frank McCourt, James Dolan (NHL, not NBA). All 5 of them have given their teams a blank check to win with and know how to gain exposure for their franchises in the appropriate channels. I left off Huizenga because all you have to do with the Dolphins is have the money, he didn't reestablish anything like Steinbrenner or create something like Cuban. I left off Arison because, well, he was fortunate enough to have Shaq and Wade fall into his lap, and plenty of NBA owners did what he did in the salary cap less era.
December 29, 200619 yr MLB- George Steinbrenner NBA- Mickey Arison NFL- Wayne Huizenga, Jerry Jones, Would say Joe Robbie if he still was alive. He saved sports in florida

Great? Really? The Dolphins havent done much of anything since he bought them
December 30, 200619 yr Paul Allen (especially with Seahawks), Jerry Jones, Steinbrenner, Cuban & pat bowlen
December 30, 200619 yr An owner is one thing compared to a GM I'll take Cuban over anybody if we're talking strictly owners

Great? Really? The Dolphins havent done much of anything since he bought them yes, great. the man has gone all out with the dolphins trying to get them to the top whether through spending on players, coaches whatever and now all the money he's putting into the stadium. yeah theyve struggled a lot the last few years but thats because of bad drafts and player moves, that aint the owner's fault.
December 30, 200619 yr Eddie DeBartelo>>>>>all of course, the NFL forced him to hand over the team to his braindead sister and jackass brother in law, so my vote goes to either George Steinbrenner and Mark Cuban
December 30, 200619 yr steinbrenner, cuban are a couple of the best, can't beat them. btw, nice sig JRich

December 30, 200619 yr i know this is in the past but, NFL- Art Rooney I- the only reason for our existance.
