Obviously as people are saying a major skill is self-restraint. You're the money guy. You're almost certainly not enough of a football genius to be the last word on strategy, roster decisions, or even coaching hires. But owners do need to be able to recognize when the people they've hired to make those decisions are fucking them up. They're the only people who can step in when the [GM/VP of football operations/whatever title you made up] needs to be reined in or fired. "Hire a good team and stay out of their way" is the ideal formula, but hiring a good team takes genuine skill.
