    He never was the owner. His wife and the Adams family are.

    I think this only bodes well for the Titans.

    Tommy never did come off as having a clue about football, but this is worrisome news.

    What's the future of the Titans look Like?

    "I don't like the light blue jerseys."

    "Actually, scratch that. I don't like the team in general. I'm out this *****. Dueces."

    So new CEO...

    Whiz and Web seats just got warm.

    A busted season this year and they are getting pink slips.

    That's operating under the assumption that people will really care about this. I don't think most will. Bud Adams dying got hardly any attention. An unknown owner leaving his post isn't front page news even in nashville.

    Top Candidates:

    Fred Smith - FedEx & Redskins minority owner - $3.5b net worth. Currently is living in Memphis. His son, Arthur Smith, who played football at theUniversity of North Carolina, is an Offensive Line/Tight End Assistant Coach for theTennessee Titans.

    David Tepper - Hedge Fund Manager + minority owner of the Steelers. Currently lives in Pittsburgh. Worth $10b, so hes got some cash money.

    I expect some portion of the team to be sold, if not all of it. The purchaser will be CEO/minority owner. These two are the favorites.

    I didn't expect anything out of him anyway. He did say all the right things while he was "large and in charge" so I will give him credit for that. To cite health reasons as him stepping down just confirms what we all know. He's a fat lazy sos who cares about money not about this football team.

    Can't get much bleaker than the recent past and current Titans landscape.
