Woody Johnson sell the team petition


Recommended Posts

I think Christopher is good with trying to let professionals run the team.   To do that you have to hire good professionals.  

The Jets are Woody’s job.  He does not want to be on the firing line, but he is the team President.  He runs the team.  He makes the big decisions.   The Jets record is Woody’s record.   

The Jets will play like they play until Woody gives up control.  That will be when he is too old.

For what purpose? I mean, unless they just don't want to own an NFL franchise, what thing would they going to buy that they can't buy by leveraging their asset and take out a loan (with an interest rate that'd clearly be lower than the rate at which the team appreciates) -- they don't need to sell it.

Just looked it up -- jfc: the team's worth about $7BN now. He's worth about $9BN (allegedly, on both figures), and both numbers are only growing.

One would think they'd be quite comfortable money-wise without liquidating their ownership, and throwing away all the benefits that come with it. 

Prepare of a lifetime of Johnson family ownership post-Woody, lol.

Out of curiosity, what would the taxes and other expenses be for such a transition when Woody departs this earthly plane? A

ONe of the few things Jet fans and cowgirls fans can relate too, a father\son duo running their teams into the ground for the forseeable future.

possibly ruined a premier project rookie QB, and couldn't even win with a HOF QB. It was time.

Whatever your feelings are about ZW ... He was a consensus top project QB. Saleh failed utterly with him ... And then .. continued to fail with a consensus first ballot HOF QB.

Top project QB.  lol.

Question:  Is Sean Payton failing him too?  Cuz he’s still the 3rd string QB there and stuff.

The “consensus” behind Zach was based on fluff.  Saleh was 2-3 with a 40 year old Aaron Rodgers throwing to garbage WRs

There was zero validity behind the Zach hype.  If people want to blame Saleh for Zach being a bust that’s weak sauce no one is coaching up that clown

Dream on.

Why would he ever want to sell it? If anything he’s been trying to also acquire another sports franchise (Chelsea soccer team, as recently as two years ago).

The only way he’s out is if there’s some scandal uncovered where the other owners force a sale. Wouldn’t be this franchise’s first forced-sale; it’s how Werblin ended up with the team because the prior owner was bouncing paychecks to the players. Since that’s not going to happen, it’d take something with visible public embarrassment for the league: think Dan Snyder or Marge Schott.

This asset has appreciated faster than the stock market, while providing him loads of entertainment and far less risk. He’s keeping it forever and then it’s passing to his family. He surely filed a succession plan with the league many years ago, as well as whatever arrangements in his own estate’s trust.

He doesn’t care how many fans want him to sell it. 

He would consider it if the stands were 3/4 empty every game.  

That said.....the stands won't be 3/4 empty every game, so that leaves us with your original point.
