Absolutely true.

In fact the Observer ran this pic for months and months and months.  Don't misunderstand, I'm not saying they thought these pretenders were leading candidates, but they absolutely thought they had a legit shot --- which was never the case.

I'm well aware of who got "serious" coverage....they did an incredible disservice to the word "serious"

Tepper was the only one who had the money, and was qualified (based on the criteria the NFL was going by).

Navarro didn't have the money, and his business background would invite a lot of scrutiny & negative press.

Kestenbaum was a complete joke, a modern day John Spano.

Rubin didn't have the money, and his entourage would not work for the NFL.

It was Tepper from the git go...

 

Well then you'll have no trouble finding links to those stories, will you?

Rubin had the money. He was just told by the NFL that he'd have to be willing to commit at least 2.5 billion and he wasn't. Then the teams was sold  for 2.275 billion.

Rubin didn't have the cash money required for the deal.

It was Navarro who didn't have the cash.

Rubin did, but dropped out after the NFL told him the price was going to be steeper than he wanted to pay. Even after dropping out though, he spoke of being still interested "at the right price".

Neither had the cash on hand required to complete the deal. 

One or both may have been able to raise it given enough time but  in the face of the stated time-frame the liquidity was not there.

Funniest one was Kestenbaum....scam artist who convinced everyone around here he was a billionaire, LOL.

Seems like sometimes the really talented players are really bad at identifying talent in others. Just look at Elway's QB drafting. Yikes...

Good point. Sucks that we saved his job.
