This is what I have such a hard time understanding. How was Ishbia ok with buying into this situation of another 8 years of JR continuing to add nails to the coffin. It seems the longer JR is in charge the more money it will cost to bring this franchise back to relevance.

Then why is he working for Getz.

I understand that JR can't be force out. I was just trying to understand why he couldn't give up the power to run the day to day operations while still being a part owner an thus still avoiding the tax implications of selling his shares.

Ok, I thought it was that Ishbia just bought out JR's partners.

So there is no mechanism under which the ownership group could select/elect a new chairman? What if JR became mentally unfit to run the team. Has it always been this way? In the past would it have been impossible for JR to cede control to one of the other owners without selling his shares? Sorry for all the questions I am just trying to understand this situation. It just seems so odd to me that an ownership group can not transfer or share decision making duties amongst the group.

But if Ishbia already owns part of the team why couldn't he be allowed to become the decision maker even without a sale. Isn't JR just the Chairman of the ownership group? Could he not resign as chairman while still being a part owner of the team?

I don't understand this. If JR doesn't sell his shares but simply allows Ishbia to run the show why would there be any tax implication?

Let's see what the Jay's are able to get for him in a months time.

Good Manitoba kid taking down Toronto.

Exactly this. It's like we have Vince Offer in the booth.

I'd like to revise my prediction please.

You can't compare these two. Chris Widger was "The Widge" and nobody beat him. McGuire on the other hand has already beat himself.

Way to go Venezuela!

What are the chances of Japanese sponsorship money swaying JR?

What is the worst pick we could end up with?
