papazoid Posted October 21, 2013 Share Posted October 21, 2013 Adams, who founded the Houston Oilers at the outset of the American Football League, had owned his franchise longer than any other current NFL owner, a few months ahead of fellow AFL originator Ralph Wilson of the Bills. http://profootballtalk.nbcsports.com/2013/10/21/reports-titans-owner-bud-adams-dies-at-90/ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Maguire's Beer Posted October 21, 2013 Share Posted October 21, 2013 I guess this means that Ralph wins the tontine and takes possession of the original AFL franchise fees - given that it was invested in gold by Lamar Hunt, that must be worth around $6 million today. Not a bad haul. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

67 Lion Posted October 21, 2013 Share Posted October 21, 2013 Dear old Ralph just turned 95. He is the oldest surviving founder. Give him credit for finally stepping away from active management of the team. Sadly, some day in the not too distant future, we will learn that he too has passed...and then our troubles will really begin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
26CornerBlitz Posted October 21, 2013 Author Share Posted October 21, 2013 Does Tennessee have a contingency plan? Did he leave the team to a family member? @jwyattsports In agreement with @McClain_on_NFL that Bud's son-in-law, Tommy Smith, will likely be heavily involved moving forward with the organization.
