NFL's Worst Owners

Yahoo sports columnist, Michael Silver, wrote a pretty interesting article ranking NFL owners from worst to best. Here's what he had to say about some of the worst NFL owners:

32. Jacksonville Jaguars - Wayne Weaver

“He’s a sick puppy,” one owner says of Weaver. “He’s totally and completely out for his bottom line, and the league’s best interest is not in his mind at all.”

31. Oakland Raiders - Al Davis

The Raiders, since their Super Bowl XXXVII defeat to the Bucs, are 19-61 over the past five seasons, the NFL’s worst record during that span. But in Davis’s distorted world, it’s always somebody else’s fault.

30. Cincinnati Bengals - Mike Brown

Recalls one owner: “Mike said, ‘We should each be able to manage our own organization without the league getting involved. If we can’t manage it ourselves, we shouldn’t be running our businesses.’ And we were all laughing to ourselves, because Mike is the one whose organization had more players getting in trouble than anyone else’s.

28. Arizona Cardinals - Bill Bidwill

Two years after opening University of Phoenix Stadium, five months after hosting Super Bowl XLII, the Cardinals are having trouble selling out the joint. That’s tough to do, but when you’re so cheap as an organization that you refuse to fly in draft prospects for visits.

27. Buffalo Bills - Ralph Wilson

Back when he co-founded the AFL, Wilson was considered an innovator. Now he comes off as selfish and stodgy and looking for handouts.
