The thing that struck me is the Cleveland Clowns are worth $1 Billion U.S. Dollars? The weird thing is they were bought by a lifelong Pittsburgh Steeler fan Jimmy Haslam who owns those Flying J truck stops that are all over the country. Will he rename them the Cleveland Flying J’s? The Browns are the most hapless franchise in the league. They are a joke. If they were worth a billion dollars and change I wonder what the Dallas Cowboys are worth? You rarely see NFL teams sold, they are a cash cow. This is crazy. If I owned an NFL team I’d be selling. If the Clowns can be worth a billion every franchise in the league has to be worth as much. The NFL is at its peak in popularity. Within 25 years there will be no NFL. Sell and get the money while you can. Story link below.

i cannot believe that they are getting 1bn for the clowns. at that rate how much are the skins or the cowgirls worth. and i agree with you – if i had a team and saw cle getting 1bn – yeah the for sale sign would be up already
also i know that some things cross sports and some do not – but what would the yankees or the dodgers be worth? or man u, or tottenham, or other top teams from the EPL?
what was liverpool sold for a few years ago? it was huge.. will the browns stay in cleveland? I can see them moving to London and in 5 years acquring Big Ben from the Steelers for 4 first round picks.. Big Ben playing in London a natural…
someone will be going to london within the next 5 years
and i will let the steelers trade big ben to them in 5 years..he will be on his last legs then…and a few more hits to the head and he will still think he’s a steeler..
