Phil Sheridan, making sense as usual:
For all the anger directed at Lurie, you wouldn't gain much by trading him for either of the owners in this Super Bowl.The Eagles, you know, crushed both the Steelers and Cardinals in the regular season. Posted by Stephen Silver at February 1, 2009 11:06 PMThe Rooneys are wonderful people and old-guard NFL owners, but they run the Steelers much more frugally than Lurie runs the Eagles. And if you think Lurie is overly patient with Reid, do you think owners who gave Bill Cowher 14 years to win a Super Bowl would be any different?
Arizona's Bill Bidwill is arguably the worst owner in the NFL. He moved his team from St. Louis to Phoenix, where it didn't host a playoff game in its first two decades. If Bidwill was bothered in the least, he did a fine job of hiding it. The only thing the Cards did right was keep losing until they hit on a few high draft choices.
