That's why you have ownership groups.
Diddy's group raised enough to bid for the Panthers, but the team was sold for less than his offer. Coincedence?
The NFL is the ONLY major North American sports federation with ZERO Black ownership:
MLB-James Brown & Magic Johnson are owners,
NBA-Michael Jordan, Usher, etc. are owners,
NHL-Sheila Johnson-Newman
WNBA-Sheila Johnson-Newman again
In the NFL, we can play, we can coach, but we cannot own.

Nah. The NFL is the most viable ownership, and their owners have been in the same circles for generations. You're not easily getting into the NFL until most, if not all of the old guard dies. None of those other leagues are like that.

On a side note im not gonna hate on football fans anymore. I think the important thing is to acknowledge the injustices regardless of who the conversation is with

Its the world we live in unfortunately. The NBA for example would rather keep getting that China money instead of speaking out about how theyre killing muslims and selling their organs, which is why they have become an economic power house. They will likely be increasing their persecution of Christians in the upcoming years as well

The MLB hasnt done anything to market their sport to the black community in many years

Unfortunately racism and injustices show up everywhere, as well as pride and greed

How many owners sold they team in the last 20 years?
Diddy never actually bid on the Panthers. That group of his dropped out once the price hit 2.5 Billion and he would NOT have been majority owner,
What happened to Diddy's bid to buy the Carolina Panthers?

Magic Johnson is just a figure head for the Dodgers. His ownership stake of the Dodgers is 2.3%. He makes no decisions.
Yahoo is now part of Verizon Media

Michael Jordan - only paid $100 million out of pocket for the Hornets. He got it so cheap because he took over the $150 million debt from Bob Johnson because they were losing so much money. Turns out to be one of the greatest deals ever because sports franchise prices have exploded since the Clippers sale.
NBA board approves sale of Bobcats to Jordan

Sheila Johnson-Newman is not the majority

That was the point of my earlier post. NFL ownership is the very definition of a good ol' boy network, and the League has been very good about keeping it that way.
Honestly, I'm surprised that Dan Snyder and Shahid Khan were able to get in. Money doesn't always talk.

David Steward Is The Second Richest Black Man In America... Here's How He Earned His $4 Billion Fortune | Celebrity Net Worth

David Steward. But the NFL wanted to be in LA so bad. So fukk having a Black owner and having a team in St. Louis.

In 2009, David Steward, founder and chairman of $2.5 billion World Wide Technology, was part of a group interested in buying the St. Louis Rams.

:francis:

4 seasons now. Haven't watched. Fukk the NFL, we'll see 'em in court.

Edit -- And do believe the NFL is scared of black ownership. They took care of Shad Khan when he didn't get the Rams, but what about Steward? Crickets.

Y'all sleep though, hard asleep. REM sleep.

I know. He shouldnt have settled


its funny cuz when Kap settled I was one of the main guys saying the NFL won and Kap shouldn't have settled. But if you go back to the thread you'll see that most people here said that Kap one and the NFL lost because they admitted guilt, and that anyone who said Kap lost was a c00n:dead:

NFL really should've just let this shyt die out, this workout shyt was unnecessary but looks like they won yet again
