Having given this some thought I've decided I want a challenge.

My choice would be to own an NHL Team.

The team I would like to own is the Toronto Maple Leafs.

I want to be the owner that brings the Leafs the Cup.

Yes, I want to be the person mostly responsible for HELL FREEZING OVER!!

Of course my first order of business would be firing Burke, but that's a given.:D:

I'd hire Paul Fenton from Nashville or Murray's right hand man in Ottawa to take Burke's place.:bounce:

I'd want a small market MLB team. So many moving parts. It's like a puzzle with pieces which keep changing, and other pieces which have no distinct shape. And the comparably tiny budget would make it a massive challenge. You've got to get it right.

I would love that.

No guaranteed salaries, franchise tags, a 10 year CBA, multi-billion dollar TV contract, players who are morons and player reps who are even dumber!!!

You are talking about owning a business right? Fuck a hobby!!! I am in it to pay my bills and pay for a shit ton of other people's health care, food, and retirement!

You can choose whatever sport & team you want for your own reasons. It doesn't matter.

Fan = wings or Pens

Businessman = Yankees or Cowboys...with these teams, it's almost like printing your own money

you can throw ManU in there as well as a money-maker

Well we all know I am a homer.

NHL - Bruins
Hockey is by far the best sport.

NFL - Pats or Jets
Pats because of the last 10 years and success. Jets because i would love to be the owner that actually took a championship to that terrible team.

MLB - NONE
Cannot stand the candy ass players

NBA - None
Nothing but assholes.

I'd like to buy either the Isles/Devs/Panthers. Whichever team is on the move and start a brand new team somewhere (Seattle/Quebec).

^^^ good scenario

If I had unlimited resources,I'd go a step further and think it would be fantastic to start a franchise from the ground up.

is Man U an actual money maker or just worth a ton of money. some say that Man U have a serious debt on going. not chelsea like but hard core. if Im going a major EPL team I would go arsenal. they make a tidy profit.
