What does it take to be a good NFL owner? (alien.top)

Every year we see various fanbases complain about the ownership of their favorite NFL team and wishing they would do better/sell, ect. Many dislike their ownership for perceived incompententcies in running the organization (Mark Davis, David Tepper), others dislike their owner based on personal dislike (Dan Snyder before he sold). So my question for you: what makes a good NFL owner? Should they be highly involved in team decision making ala Jerry Jones? Be way hands off like Kroenke? Does their participation in the community matter as much as winning championships? Or do you just want success?

Edit: I guess I should say, this is an excellent opportunity for Packers shareholders to pat themselves on the back

I think it’s similar to any good high level managers, directors, executives in any corporation.

I think it’s making sure you hire the right people around you (which can be difficult) and trusting them. As an owner you can’t really do much else but financially support your organization. Jerry Jones might be the only exception but even then the cowboys haven’t won the big one in a while so idk
