[QUOTE="Pokerbrat2000, post: 911921, member: 7261"] The Green Bay Packers do not have a single owner, you are correct. The NFL actually no longer allows a team to have more than 32 owners. The Packers are the only franchise in major sports with non-traditional ownership. Yet they are owned. Probably more important, they are managed and operated in a very similar way that most pro teams are with individual people making most of the major decisions. People that are not players or fans. History has seen plenty of leagues pop up with more than enough players to fill them, yet they fail. Why? Fans aren't interested, the money isn't their for the owners or the players, so those leagues fail. Again, the NFL exists because of quite a few parts working together, but for you to say it only exists because of the players is just not looking at the big picture. Pee Wee football exists because a lot of kids love playing football, but you wouldn't pay to see it, nor would anyone buy a Pee Wee football team. The NFL is a major business, the players are simply products of the business, they could all quit today and new players put in there place and the NFL would still continue to thrive. [/QUOTE]
