Ballmer could decide that since he can't spend his $2 Billion on the LA Clippers, maybe he could focus attempts of those funds on a future NFL team for LA. The NFL is drastically more profitable than NBA basketball, it's not even close actually. I'd be most worried about someone like him gaining interest in the NFL & simply waiting out the time on the lease, he obviously has a market there in LA that would bring a much larger return in the long run to his legacy / estate.
Would anyone in Buffalo pay $2 Billion for the Bills right now ? By the time the lease expires, this would considered inexpensive via future TV escalators & revenues for the NFL. Especially so if you go back 7-10 years & look at right now, we're talking a ~400-~500% growth during that time (after reviewing the 2004 TV contracts & extrapolating).
