I enjoy following the owners politicking as much as the games themselves. my take on the Bills sale:

1-Most owners didn't want him in the club. Likely because they probably knew a lot about his dealings or because they thought he was a clown.

2-Drumpty would have had to prove he had the cash to buy the team, which I don't think he ever had without getting a loan. That would have opened up another can of worms for reasons that are now obvious.
