Paul Allen owner though ... a 1%'er. All team owners are 1%er's so that makes no difference as to who wins.. The real crime is that the NFL itself is classed as a non-profit organization by the IRS Part of how 1%er's get...and stay there....

If you don't like Paul Allen - stop using his products - Microsoft. Are you blaming him just because he is rich? Hell he almost fell into the money, but in any case it sure isn't his fault it's our system. Yesterday everyone in Seattle were able to benefit just a little more from his spending. His original partner, Bill Gates, is spending huge amounts to help the poor and sick around the world. Both men are heavy contributors to biotech research to solve medical problems. And they're not the 1% - they are way higher than that.
