Anything is "possible", but two dozen billionaires all deciding to sell their pride & joy at the same time? Seems unlikely.

Or at least less likely than a bunch of scrub golfers jumping at the big cash, with a bare scattering of "Big Names" intended for credibility. Too bad for LIV that Dustin Johnson hit the skids all the way down #90 in the world and even Patrick Reed at #47 seems like poor value for the money. Phil Mickelson plays a grand total of one event each year for LIV; he's just a brand ambassador, as Norman is.

The current Top 25 in the World rankings has exactly ONE golfer from LIV…Koepka at #13. Hardly a threat to competitive balance.

(Which does make the PGA's panicky caving rather sad, IMO, but that's a different issue.)

To extrapolate from that the idea that Jerry Jones would suddenly want to sell Dem Cowboys to MBS's cousin, or whomever, seems dubious. That 23 other owners would simultaneously agree with Jerry and sacrifice their pride and family heritage for money they don't need is also a pipe dream, I'd say

Especially as they'd actually have to get 24/31, since there's literally no way the collective Packers ownership would do it. They're presumably enjoined by a Brown County statute from selling to any single owner. Even Aaron Rodgers.
