Nick Underhill: Players organizing a Players-Only Meeting

So? That doesn't have anything to do with ownership of the team. He has zero stake in it, and same with DL. While they run the team, the buck stops with Gayle. When she passes, the team will be sold, and they get none of it.
Correct. However, I think the point is that via his relationship with Gayle and involvement in the succession of the team, makes him pretty much untouchable and he yields a great deal of power (and little accountability).
