In fact, of the top three biggest spenders (Cowboys, Seahawks, and Redskins), only Seattle has seen recent playoff success. His spending doesn't indicate success, but it does show dedication. I'd rather have an owner who tries and isn't afraid to spend additional money than one who doesn't. He brings in the right people for front office positions, which ensures his money won't go to waste. In my opinion, Seattle has been much better off with Paul Allen. Without him, the team would probably be playing in Los Angeles right now. Agreed.

Paul Allen spending money on something is *no* indication of success. I'm glad he tries for you and all, but, um, have the Trail Blazers been a model of success, either?
