Houston Rockets owner Tilman Fertitta has flirted with the idea of owning an NFL team. Earlier this week, he told Chandler France of Houston Business Journal that he's interested in purchasing the Saints...
quote:

"I've always loved the New Orleans Saints, but [Benson] won't sell them right now," Fertitta said.
...
"I own a franchise, so I love them selling for a lot, but at some point, I don't think $6 billion is the right number," Fertitta said in regards to the sale of the Commanders. "Everybody that's watched me do business for the last 40 years knows when I draw a line in the sand, I'm done. So, I'm here. You know I can close, and that's the way it is."

This guy's circle of competence is pretty high. Would likely be an upgrade.

And he’d probably move the team to San Antonio or OKC as soon as he could….

He had a reality show about inventors or entrepreneurs a while back, where he'd go into biz with them if good enough. I watched that for a few seasons...pretty good.

Seems like a legit guy. Can't question his success. Might be good for Gayle to bow out and just call it a successful life and cater to the kids from here on out.

Rockets are currently third in the Western conference and their future is looking bright. Can't say the same for the Pelicans.
