I'm not sure why anyone would buy a 10% "non-controlling" share of a company like this -- especially with the team's history of management troubles.

The New York Football Giants, and any NFL team, is pretty much guaranteed to make money . . . lots of money. If the Redskins appreciated greatly under Snyder, and the Cowboys under Jerry Jones, you cannot miss.

Among NFL teams, the Giants are the senior team in the nation's largest market, has a history of winning big between hiccups despite the management, has no problem attracting high value free agents, and is among the most storied of NFL franchises up there with the Bears and Packers.

And 10% may not be majority, but when the Mara's cannot agree, it will be the tie-breaker, like the Giants' own Sandra Day O'Connor or John Roberts.

I assumed the "non-controlling share" angle to this means the Koch owners will have no say in the organization's management and operations.
