The one thing I don't you can accuse Edwards of being is cheap with the Flames.
We should actually have an Edwards mega thread...but I do feel I need to elaborate on my view, as I agree with your points.

1. Edwards is the owner, he can do what he wants with the team while he owns it.
2. I don't think Edwards is cheap.
3. Personally I am not a fan of the low cost entertainment model. My belief is that you need to invest in these types of businesses and grow them across a number of revenue channels consistently and constantly. Love and engage your customer.

My issues with ownership is that I see them as accounting CEOs, they have to cut costs and raise prices to make their margins. It's their only play. I want the marketing CEO who grows the brand and invests in the product so that I feel good being a part of it.
