I have read that such investments would be capped at 10% of the NFL team's value but I don't think that has been approved by the owners yet.
It's inevitable.
You are opening the door. And the NFL owners are as greedy as it gets.

I'm wondering why the NFL thinks it needs to involved PE. Obviously there's an angle, but that league prints money and there's no shortage of partners in every industry.
I'm asking what the NFL would need PE for specifically. For new investors to buy teams? Is that the reason?Greed like Jens said and these days you have to line up investors to help you buy a team hence the need for PE.

But I'm asking what the purpose is? Just to simply allow PE to get involved as a way to keep the value of these franchises increasing instead of leveling off because individual people aren't going to be able to afford $10-$15B franchises?Doesn't mean they will be the controlling owner and the proposed NFL rules would cap PEs to just 10% of the team. The recent sales of pro teams in North America has included investors to help the controlling owner purchase the team. I'm certain the recent Broncos sale did include such investors even if the Waltons & Penners had the money to do it all themselves.

Fresh capital, some owners might want to partially cash out plus, as discussed ad nauseum during the Broncos sale, the list of people who can afford NFL franchises with the current funding requirements isn't very big to begin with it and isn't getting bigger.I'm wondering why the NFL thinks it needs to involved PE.

You hit the nail on the head. This is about partially cashing out and bringing in outside capital to fund new projects within the franchise. No owner wants to put up their own cash.Fresh capital, some owners might want to partially cash out plus, as discussed ad nauseum during the Broncos sale, the list of people who can afford NFL franchises with the current funding requirements isn't very big to begin with it and isn't getting bigger.
I don’t know the others, but Stephens is a green with envy csu alumStephens, like Keeler and Ubban, are bitch asses
I for one am very concerned that if something legitimately scandalous happens in Prime's program that no one will report on it.This what I don’t get about Denver media. What does anyone have to hold Prime accountable for? What has he done since he’s been here that needs some kind of media watch dog to “ask tough questions” and “hold him accountable”?
Increased wins and competitiveness on the field, brought unprecedented exposure, brought record breaking donations and revenue, sold out season tickets for the first time ever, increased diversity, university applications skyrocketed, highest team GPA, etc.
First I've heard of thatHas it been brought up that Prime negotiated the right into his contract that he has full discretion on what media he works with?
Exactly. We better be ****ing good because I'm sick of all the **** talking by some people in the media.i don't care about the local cbs affiliate. i don't care about the douchebag keeler and the biased DP.
they all act like small time journalists covering a lower division team. we are going to win and the hate meter is going to go to 11. here is why: the racists and haters are going to say CU "should" have won more than X games this season and really the only objectively fair bar ought to be whether we bowl or not. the hate pundits will then conintue all kinds of wild speculation about Coach moving on when his kids do. then, when he reiterates that he is staying and he lands a few monster game -changing players (either portal or otherwise), they will shift their attack to say we are somehow dishonorable.
good.fine. throw it all at us. the bonfire of their hate just makes the program stronger. this is happening.

A few years ago while coaching at Jackson State, Sanders refused to take a question from a reporter when the person addressed him at the Southwestern Conference media day as Deion instead of Coach Prime.
“If you call Nick (Saban), Nick, you’ll get cussed out on the spot,” Sanders said to the reporter, referring to the former Alabama coach. “So don’t do that to me. Treat me like Nick.”
Two weeks ago, Sanders dismissively waved off a CBS reporter after learning of the reporter’s affiliation.
“I’m not doing nothing with CBS. Next question,” he said. “It ain’t got nothing to do with you. It’s above that. It ain’t got nothing to do with you. I got love for you. I appreciate you. I respect you. It ain’t got nothing to do with you. They know what they did.”
I can understand Sanders being bothered by such characterizations, but I also know the skin of an FBS head coach has to be thicker than one-ply toilet paper.
