The Official Tennessee Titans thread IV

Seeing as Arizona has long been my favorite NFC team, I consider myself knowledgeable about s***ty ownership. And the way I see it, professional sports ownership is a much more complex business than people give it credit for. There is so much that goes into being a successful franchise, but probably 80% of it is luck.

I fully believe that 27 or so of the league's 32 owners truly do want their teams to be successful, and probably would be if they ever found the right combination of GM/Coach/QB. The others (like Spanos, Brown, Bidwill, etc.) are mostly just in it to sell tickets and rake in ad/tv revenue. For whatever faults she has, I truly believe Amy Strunk falls in the former category. She has made some decisions that did not turn out well in hindsight, but that's life. I also think she is far less of a cheapskate and in some ways (like the VY draft pick) less meddlesome than her father was.

There's no two ways around the fact that the Titans current situation is pretty bleak, but unlike a handful of other franchises, I do not believe the owner is an obstacle to getting it turned around.
