An associate of Wayne Huizenga said one reason he is in serious discussions to sell the team is because his sons have little interest in owning the team eventually, and another employee said he has strong incentive to sell the team for estate-planning purposes.

...and the billion dollar tag price does not count, right?

getting ready to die. Sad, really.

I don't understand why his sons would want nothing to do with one of the best supported franchises in the league. This team is terrible, but the fans are as dedicated as any team's out there. NFL teams, by nature of their league wide TV deal, cannot lose money...why would you not want that as a businessman? You gotta think that Wayner's kids just don't have the business sense their old man does after reading something like this (he may not be a brilliant owner, but he HAS been a brilliant businessman)

In that image, does Wayne look like the slow witted turtle bugs bunny always raced?

Hey, ain't the captain supposed to go down with the ship?

He is more like a rat trying to get on the fkn life raft right now. Maybe him and Petrino can share a spot.

Good riddance to a terrible owner. He's a pox on all his teams. I feel sorry for the fans of his teams.
