Correction needed: Browns are owned by a trust, not Lerner outright:

The Cleveland Browns are not owned outright by Randy Lerner. Instead, it appears that he controls a family trust set up by his deceased father, Alfred R. Lerner, and that the trust actually owns the team, according to this article by Len Pasquarelli at espn.com retrieved 12/14/2007: quote: And so Al Lerner structured the team to go into a family trust when he died. His heirs, wife Norma, son Randy and daughter Nancy Beck, essentially control 90 percent of the stock.

Re: Jaguars ownership

Just to be clear. Wayne Weaver is still the owner of the Jacksonville Jaguars. For now. He's not selling the team to Shahid Khan until the end of the season. So don't change it until then. Thank you. J. Myrle Fuller (talk) 14:25, 30 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Owner profiles

Just read in this article on CNN ( http://www.cnn.com/2017/08/15/opinions/espn-fantasy-auction-opinion-pearlman/index.html ) that "Remember -- 31 of the NFL's 32 franchises are owned by white men". That's not surprising, but it is notable, and I wonder if something on this could be added to the article. I mean, who is that one non-white owner? Un school 02:55, 5 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The Green Bay Packers, Inc. 1935 not 1923

The Green Bay Football Corporation owned the team 1923-35 the team went into receivership

The Green Bay Football Corporation continued to run the franchise until Aug. 15, 1933, when it went into receivership. Frank Jonet, who had previously audited the corporation’s books, was appointed the receiver. The corporation’s financial problems stemmed largely from a lawsuit brought by Willard Bent, a fan who fell from the stands at a game at City Stadium in 1931 and was awarded close to $5,000 in damages. The so-called Hungry Five, along with Jonet, ran the franchise while it was in receivership. However, the minutes of a special NFL meeting held in February 1933 stated that title to it was actually transferred into Joannes’ name. The Hungry Five included Joannes, who had been elected president of the corporation in 1930; attorney Gerald Clifford, who had been elected to the Executive Committee the same year; Turnbull, Kelly and Lambeau. The Packers emerged from receivership in January 1935 and reorganized as The Green Bay Packers, Inc., the community�owned company that remains active today, although the word “The” was dropped in 1997 when the articles of incorporation were amended. 2022 Packers media guide page 530 — Preceding unsigned comment added by 97.116.106.172 (talk) 01:20, 30 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
