I'm torn on 5 (anti-realist) or 7 (smartest guy in the room) for Edwards on this list.
It's definitely 6(The Participation Trophy)!

The polar opposite of Level 5, this is the owner who doesn’t seem to be aware that they’re supposed to want to win.

...these owners are often involved in all sorts of other elements of the franchise. They’re happy to gladhand with corporate sponsors. They’re probably involved in some admirable community initiatives.
It fits my perception because ever since I can remember it has been "make the playoffs and anything can happen".
