He purchased the team for $800 million in 1999, about $1.5 billion in today's money. He sold for over $6 billion. So he was fined $60 million after everything? That's a rounding error when we're talking about that type of money.
I tried a shot at the math, $60MM looks to be about 1.9% of what he sold the team for. Talk about a very light tap on the wrist haha! I mean a JR Bacon Cheeseburger and some petrol might be 1.9% for me. These people are wealthier beyond belief.

Fuck, I’m gonna miss Synder. Not for the objectively terrible person he is, but for the objectively terrible football team owner he was.

Team can actually move on now. Should be better for the league as a whole.

I felt like this day would never come. Just purchased tickets for the first time in forever, let's sell this place out like we used to. Left hand up!
