Full article is here, I'll post the short list below.

http://sportsillustrated.cnn.com/2007/w ... index.html

Dan Snyder at #5 is utterly ridiculous.

My top five would probably be (in no particular order) Kraft, Rooney, Lurie, Bowlen, and maybe Allen.

====
1. Bob Kraft (Patriots)
2. Jerry Jones (Cowboys)
3. Jerry Richardson (Panthers)
4. Glazers (Bucs)
5. Dan Snyder (Redskins)
6. Jeff Lurie (Eagles)
7. Bob McNair (Texans)
8. Wayne Huizenga (Dolphins)
9. Dan Rooney (Steelers)
10. Pat Bowlen (Broncos)
11. Jim Irsay (Colts)
12. Paul Allen (Seahawks)
13. Steve Bisciotti (Ravens)
14. John Mara/Jonathan Tisch (Giants)
15. Clark Hunt (Chiefs)
16. Packers
17. Woody Johnson (Jets)
18. Bud Adams (Titans)
19. Arthur Blank (Falcons)
20. Al Davis (Raiders)
21. Georgia Frontiere (Rams)
22. Randy Lerner (Browns)
23. Zygi Wilf (Vikings)
24. Alex Spanos (Chargers)
25. John York (49ers)
26. Michael McCaskey (Bears)
27. Bill Bidwill (Cardinals)
28. Wayne Weaver (Jaguars)
29. William Clay Ford (Lions)
30. Ralph Wilson (Bills)
31. Tom Benson (Saints)
32. Mike Brown (Bengals)

What's the criteria for determining "best NFL coach"?

i think he should be higher..the dolphins havent been good n stuff..but wayne was always a good owner..he always take good care of em and try to reach out for the best players and coaches (esp coaches)..he did his part to see the team was compteitive

plus hes not one of those "hey media look at me" assholes..i remember seein him a couple of times on the field during playoff games to congratulate the team, but he pretty much keeps a low profile

If I wasn't a Cowboy fan, I would hate Jerry Jones, but I couldn't be happier to have him.

I fucking hate TO, but even after that, Jerry is still just fine in my book.

Easily, one of the top 5 owners in the NFL.

SI should get rid of everyone who writes about football over there except for Dr. Z.

But then I wouldn't know where to find the best coffee in Bismarck.



Anyway, Rooney & Bowlen are too low and Jones & Snyder are too high.

McNair owns the Texans. Listing the Texans as the Titans is still less ridiculous than putting their owner at #7.

Ralph Wilson at 30 is ridiculous, and the author's main reasoning for putting him so low is that he wouldn't go along with the rest of the sheep when the last labor deal was done. Apparently, independent though knocks you down a few places on this list.

sorry, but anyone who names the stadium after himself deserves to be at the bottom.

Sorry, the words "McNair" and "Titans" are still tied together in my mind.
