“These changes are only the start,” said the billionaire businessman. “Long-term I see the Cowboys franchise relocating to Boston or New York. I’m sure our wonderful fans won’t mind taking a long-haul flight to every home game. Probably we’ll throw in 10% off any pretzel at the Boehly Bowl for those who make the tripI have“Could someone send in Harry Potter please?” he added. “I’ve a hankering to sack someone.”
