Default Browns sold for $1billion+, pending league (owners) approval
Quote:
Adam Schefter of ESPN and the NFL Network both report that Haslem has completed his purchase of the team from Randy Lerner. Schefter reports that the total sale price will be $1 billion, with Haslam paying $700 million now for a controlling interest in the team. There will be a second payment of more than $300 million at a later date.
Report: Sale of Browns for over $1 billion is complete | ProFootballTalk

Quote:
NFL ownership expected to approve Jimmy Haslam's purchase of the Browns at its October meeting, if not sooner. But no obstacles expected.

New Browns owner Jimmy Haslam also has begun to make plans with the Rooney family to sell the portion of the Steelers that he owns.

ehh, If there's one franchise in the NFL I wouldn't want to buy, it's the Browns.

Doesn't this pretty much make it official that every NFL team is worth a billion at least? Who isn't, if Cleveland is? Maybe the Jaguars?

Kraft is delighted to hear this news. If Cleveland is $1B, NE must be worth much more than that.
