I believe the Avs are 14th in payroll right now. They won the Cup the same season Kroenke took over. I guess you can give him credit for that if you want. They made the conference finals the following year and haven’t been back since.

The Nuggets are 17th in payroll. To say they’ve been very good to excellent under Kroenke is an overstatement IMO. They’ve had some strong years, the last few seasons in particular. I’d say they’ve been a run of the mill playoff team more often than not. Aside from the 5-year stretch you mentioned, they were pretty bad before Melo as well.

And that brings us to the Rams. Yes, they won the Super Bowl when he was a minority owner, and Frontierre probably doesn’t acquire Marshall Faulk, Adam Timmerman, and others without his involvement. Once he took over the franchise, however, there’s no better analogy than “Major League” for what he did to that team to get it out of St. Louis and back to Los Angeles...which was nothing but a money grab.

He’s the epitome of the greedy owner. I don’t know of any fan base that is glad to have him other than LA. (Give it time.)
