Offered 1.25 billion for team, why is it coming out now?

[Jmac]

First off,I do thank JR for giving us a team and keeping them here, for that I am grateful.But why is this coming to light today? I'm sure he knows the fan base is irrate.Maybe to cool the flames a bit to show he is committed to this city? What's your take on why we find this out after another bad start

can u please change the title so that its accurate

[Gucci Mane]

yea it was 1.2 billion and who gives a fugg

[Archimedes]

The offer was 1.25B.  Its 20-25% over the appraised value of the team, but it was made by a group in LA.  The reason it didn't come out right away, was because it wasn't supposed to be public information.  It hurts the groups negotiating power in an attempt to buy another team.

 

This should really show anyone who thinks Jerry only cares about the bottom line, that it simply isn't true.  He's not going to run the team financially into the ground, but winning a Super Bowl is worth far more to him than profit margins at this point.

My bad...sorry guys..question is the same regardless of the amount offered...what is the underlying reason for this coming out at this time

[Jmac]

Well i give a fug....they may be a suck ass team right now, but they are our suck ass team...and i want it to stay that way.

i thought it had already come out either late last year or early this year that a group in LA had approached him about buying moving the team but he told them to kick rocks

 

this might be the first time a dollar figure was associated with that though

Perhaps because Brett Jensen is a tool and this whole thing isn't even true.

Like LA would sell out the stadium and cheer for a mediocre franchise.
