Jerry Jones' rise to the top as the NFL's biggest power broker and owner of the most valuable team in the world is an incredible business story. He made several bold moves in his 28 years as owner of the Dallas Cowboys, some of the most memorable being battles with the league itself in which he ultimately prevailed.
Not only is he worthy of a spot in the Pro Football Hall of Fame, he'll forever have a spot in being one of the shrewdest people in sports business history. An initial investment of $118 million has turned into a franchise alone worth $4.
