I'm going to keep this simple and to the point because an in-depth investigative reporter, I am not, but what fires me up are team owners who are more the center of media attention than their teams, and I'm not talking in a positive light either. 

The names of the biggest contributers to my anger are familiar names to all (and really, how could they not be known, since they are constantly the focal point for their teams); Marc Cuban, Jerry Jones, and Al Davis. These guys are constantly in the spotlight, usually for one embarrassing situation after another, and frankly, its a pathetic joke.

But don't just take my word for it, lets take a look at the 'Big Three' of poor ownership and you can be the judge.

Mark Cuban:

The Owner of the Dallas Mavericks, Cuban is the biggest cause for my ire. It honestly seems like you don't go two months without hearing about some inane comment he made or some asinine twitter, text or blog that is utterly ridiculous. I mean the man has been fined over $1.5 million dollars for critical statements about either the league or the refs. Even his star player just wants him to sit down and shut up, so what does that tell you!

In a June 30, 2006 interview, Mavericks player Dirk Nowitski had the following to say.

""He's got to learn how to control himself as well as the players do. We can't lose our temper all the time on the court or off the court, and I think he's got to learn that, too. He's got to improve in that area and not yell at the officials the whole game. I don't think that helps us.... He sits right there by our bench. I think it's a bit much. But we all told him this before. It's nothing new. The game starts, and he's already yelling at them. So he needs to know how to control himself a little."

Besides comments, Cuban is notorious for running onto the court during games, as in the 2006 playoff game between his Mavs and the Spurs, Cuban cursed Spurs forward Bruce Bowen and was fined $200,000 by the NBA for rushing onto the court and criticizing NBA officials.

Al Davis:

Principal owner of the Oakland Raiders, Al Davis has turned a once proud organization into a mockery of the NFL. His antiquated football philosophies and refusal to acknowledge that football decisions are best left to the people that know how to make them have stunted any type of growth his team could have.

The latest debacle, outside of the recent poor drafting, came in 2008 when Davis fired then coach Lane Kiffin. The debacle part wasn't in the firing of a head coach but that Davis made weekly threats to fire Kiffin from the start of the 2008–09 season. At a televised news conference announcing the firing, Davis characterized Kiffin as a "liar" and a "disgrace" to the Raider organization.

Unfortunately to Raiders fans, Davis has stated that that he would not retire until he wins two more Super Bowls or dies of natural cause.

Jerry Jones:

Owner and General Manager of the Dallas Cowboys, Jerry Jones is the smug, arrogant, rear-end of a donkey that everyone loves to hate. My problem with Jones is evident in the very first sentence I used in his section, the General Manager part, because this man has no business sticking his head in football decisions outside of signing the checks.

Labeled the least favorite sports personality in three states (Delaware, Texas, and Virginia) by a poll done by Sports Illustrated, Jones is hated by fans for running fan favorites Tom Landry and Jimmie Johnson out of town. On top of that, he is constantly bringing in players with questionable backgrounds who are notorious for killing team chemistry. *cough, cough...Terrell Owens...cough, cough*  It honestly seems like you can't see a report on the Cowboys without seeing that sickenly fake smile of his plastered across the tv screen.

Now, I don't know if it's just some huge cry for attention, maybe they just need a hug, but these three really need to just go into their condo sized offices, pull out a wad of cash, and just count it. Leave the media for the athletes or at the very least, give the Rooney Family over in Pittsburgh a call, I'm sure they'd give you some lessons in class.
