Did Ebersol not watch his own documentary to figure out what NOT to do? He did and then offered to buy the XFL name and likenesses for $50 million, so something must have clicked there in his viewing

I really get the impression that the idea could have worked but he for whatever reason just wanted to beat Vince to the punch

Very good read. Again it comes down to Charlie Ebersole basically wanting to beat Vince to the punch but also he and Polian just flat out not being good business men. Smart men in their fields sure. But clearly they didnt understand what it would take to run the league. I actually don't think Dunden looked that bad in the article. He absolutely should have done more research though

He absolutely should have done more research though Dundon was the only one in that article that sounded somewhat competent. Ebersol comes off as a complete idiot who had no clue what he was doing. And it sounds like he hasn't learned anything from the whole ordeal at the end of the article. Polian was just spending way too much money.

Yeah Ebersole just sounded like a kid who had an idea but didn't put too much thought into it. Polian treated it like he was running an NFL team, and they just couldnt do that

Yeah, that money is gone. Remember when the rumor was that he only paid that much money because he wanted the software for the gambling app? I guess that wasn't the case....

Uh, Dundon? That's not how investing works. Otherwise, Hurricanes fans would try to get their money back after your team lost in the Playoffs.
