Sports Executive

The Resume

Why he might be annoying:

    He failed to win a Super Bowl, despite the fact he was the team's general manager for 25 years.
    His Vikings teams had a reputation for being either mediocre or not good enough to make a deep playoff run.
    He misjudged his talent evaluation, and thinking he was one star running back away from a Super Bowl appearance, he traded a plethora of draft picks to the Cowboys for Herschel Walker.
    The trade was viewed as being among one of the worst ones in pro sports, after the Cowboys drafted Emmitt Smith, Darren Woodson and Russell Maryland with the picks, and essentially were gifted three Super Bowl rings as a result.
    His tenure as the president of the WLAF lasted ĺess than a year, before he stepped down and returned to the Vikings.

Why he might not be annoying:

    He was a movie theatre manager, prior to working in sports.
    His strong business background helped land him a job working for the Vikings.
    He watched the Vikings make the franchise's first Super Bowl appearance, along with capturing four consecutive division titles during his first four seasons at the helm.
    He purchased a significant stake in the Vikings as a way to end an ongoing stalemate between the team's minority partners.
    He served in the United States Army, prior to making his mark in the business and sports world.
