Money For Nothing

Dead: Ozzie Silna. Who? He and his brother Daniel made the greatest financial deal ever. What was it? Well, they owned the ABA's Spirits of St. Louis, which barely managed to finish out the final season of that league before the merger with the NBA, which did not want St. Louis back in the league. The Silnas insisted, played hardball, and ended up with a share of NBA TV revenue in perpetuity. And they ended up with over $750 million FOR GOING AWAY AND DOING NOTHING before finally taking a buyout. I told you, best deal ever. (Sports Illustrated)
