No question there have been some terrible owners. But beggars can't be choosers. There's no evidence I'm aware of that any better options existed at the time than Harold Ballard, Nelson Skalbania, Murray Pezim, Larry Ryckman, Bruce McNall, Lonie and Bernie Glieberman, Horn Chen, Sherwood Schwarz, etc. Would it have been preferable to allow those franchises to fold?
