Entrepreneur

The Resume

Why he might be annoying:

    He is extremely religious and has extreme fundamentalist Christian beliefs.
    He went in way over his head in both his sporting ventures, unfamiliar with the sports he owned franchises in.
    He frequently used terms like 'goldarnit' and 'dadgummit' in place of profanities, leading many people to refer to him as 'Jed Clampett' behind his back.
    He famously dubbed Vincent Lecavalier 'the Michael Jordan of hockey,' which placed even more pressure on the latter upon being drafted.
    He was considered one of pro sports more wackjob owners of the 1990's.

Why he might not be annoying:

    He was a successful entrepreneur in the life insurance business, prior to entering pro sports.
    Despite not knowing anything about hockey, he succesfully cleared the Lightning's massive financial debt left behind from the previous ownership.
    When he realized the Lightning were a money losing venture, he sold the team to Bill Davidson, whom he outbid a year earlier.
    He made most of his fortune through wise investments.
