I did, it wasn't that long and complicated.  I said it seems like a conflict of interest, and I wonder if it was.  I am conflicted and I don't know.  An owner of a team has a bias toward their asset and I wonder if a broadcast booth would allow an owner to maintain a consistent broadcasting career given that they would have to broadcast their own team.    Its hypothetical I know.  I have watched enough announcing to know that there is not much impartial broadcasting going on out there.  

I gotcha now. I was thinking of it in legal terms which to me there's no question that it would not be a conflict. But yeah that would be something the network would have to consider if they wanted to hire him and he wanted to announce as a minority owner. Either way I don't see him announcing at all, and particularly not if he was a minority owner somewhere--which would likely come with a front office role.

I wonder if this will hurt Navarro's bid or not. I would think the Panthers would want to steer clear on anyone with sex scandal accusations. This report came out last October.

 

That’s how  I feel but I don’t count 

he is far from the golden one that the NFL painted him to be

Remember the very justified talk during the Hardy injustice of how it’d only be a matter of time before bogus allegations were used against innocent men and teams for the on field and financial advantage of others?  Allegations are just that-allegations.

True. But if you use that logic then apply it to Richardson as well.

The messages from the old fool JR himself hung him, not Ray Rice elevator video.

 Don't get me wrong I am in no way excusing Richardson for his ridiculous behavior and Peyton was 19 at the time not fully grown. Still interesting that supposedly a payout occurred with Manning as well to settle the case similar to what Richardson did as well.

And you may well be right.

It's long been rumored that Peyton wants to run a team. And it's no stretch to imagine that part of Navarro's pitch could be "And hey if you sign on, I'll put you in charge of the whole damn show!"

So while we're pondering how we feel about Manning the owner, you might also want to consider how you feel about Manning the GM.

I was doing laundry :)

Believe it or not, I do have a life outside of this board :thinking:

I hadn't thought about the GM angle
