BCJet Posted May 20, 2019 Share Posted May 20, 2019 I actually looked CJ up this weekend as well and was astonished that the first (and only) job listed on his wikipedia page is the Jets. Literally has not held as much as a board seat somewhere. How can we expect someone to competently run a multi-billion dollar organization in one of the most competitive industries on earth with zero business or football experience. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now that Maccagnan is gone I suspect you'll have little to say, not that it will matter much. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

funaz Posted May 21, 2019 Share Posted May 21, 2019 I was curious to learn more about Chris and Woody and what, if anything, they've ever done on their own that was successful. I started to do a quick google search and oh man...the Johnson family is a complete mess. These guys literally have done nothing but inherit massive amounts of money and be a part of one of the most dysfunctional families I've ever heard of.This is how most billionaires are. Bezos kids are going to be degenerate bums, just like the Walton's, and etc.Sent from my Pixel 3 XL using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gunnails Posted May 21, 2019 Share Posted May 21, 2019 10 or 12 years back I was looking into Woody and where his money came from. It's true he was born rich and never needed to work a day in his life. However he did Invest in real estate and cable TV and over doubled his money making him the billionaire he was when he bought the Jets. So yes he is an astute businessman. Next. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Giving away money is as difficult as earning it.. haven't you heard? Woody has done NOTHING in my view that should garner the respect of businessmen. Kinda like ANOTHER kid who grew up on daddy's money and lost more than a billion dollars, even though everyone thought/still thinks he is a great businessman.... Wonder whatever happened to that guy? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

varjet Posted May 21, 2019 Share Posted May 21, 2019 Someone connected basically hooked the Johnsons up with Hess. Hess was just like the Johnsons in terms of running a dysfunctional football team in a small-minded manner, but when he realized he was gong to die, he found Parcells and miraculously fixed it. Then he sold it to Johnson. Parcells and Bellichick figured it out and fled, but others remained, and for the first 10 years of Johnson’s ownership, the Jets were a top 16 NFL team. Not anymore. The right answer here is for the Johnson’s to book their gain under the Trump capital gains tax rates and move on. They are now over their head.
