The Calzone Effect: How Owner Preferences Can Impact Job Security and Career Paths in the Sports Industry

Last year, Josh Harris joined the Commanders’ sports portfolio, which also includes the NBA’s Philadelphia 76ers and the NHL’s New Jersey Devils. However, it was not clear how involved he would be in managing the team. According to a source with knowledge of the situation, Harris has been more involved than people expected him to be. It is common for owners to be more involved in management than media and fans realize. They often use someone else as a scapegoat for bad decisions, such as Commissioner Roger Goodell.

As a multi-billionaire and the ultimate decision-maker for the team, anyone who wants to remain employed by him will look for clues as to what will make him happy. This dynamic creates a significant problem because it can lead to unintended consequences. For example, if an owner says something that is taken out of context or misinterpreted, it could lead to negative consequences for the team or employees.

When it comes to selecting a quarterback prospect, Harris may try to keep his preference quiet and not reveal too much information about his thoughts on each player. However, once those around him sense which player he prefers, they will follow his lead and go in that direction unless there is someone who is willing to take a risk and go against what he wants.

In recent years, we have seen examples of owners trying to force their teams into making decisions that were not necessarily in the best interest of the franchise or its players. For example, Bryce Young was selected by Carolina despite Jerry Jones’ desire to keep him out due to his age and lack of experience in college football. Similarly, Johnny Manziel was drafted by Cleveland despite Browns owner Jimmy Haslam’s objections due to his off-field behavior and legal troubles. If these situations had been handled differently by their respective owners, they could have led to different outcomes for both franchises and their players.

It remains unclear which quarterback prospect Harris will choose for the Commanders this year but one thing is certain; it will be a player he approves of or wants.

The calzone effect refers to how an owner’s preferences can have an impact on their employees’ job security and career paths.
