he bilked the local community out of hundreds of millions of dollars, too... only ~1/5th of people are sports fan and any public tax money going to stadium is a total crock of sh%t.
some financial statements leaked a few years after that... he was making ~20-50M/year and that's accounting nonsense numbers. (i.e. totally fake and severely undervalued #'s)
tried to say he didn't make any money off the team, which is/was a total fabrication.
i think billionaires and their corporations get enough handouts... far outweighing any social safety net by far... too bad people don't understand scale.
