Most owners are fanboys. They don't buy sports teams to make money or increase their wealth. It's a luxury purchase and they seldom run them like they do their other companies. I can understand why guys like Edwards and Katz love the involvement but surely they are smart enough to sense when things aren't working? The Al Davis/Jerrry Jones model simply doesn't work.
