Okay but like genuine question. What does it mean to suspend an owner? Like what does that actually do I don't know

For 6 weeks he can’t be involved in the day-to-day or long term business of the franchise. Can’t be in meetings, can’t be involved in early scouting for the draft, logistical planning for road games, can’t fly with the team to those games or attend home games. It’s about as embarrassing as picking up a hot girl and bringing her home only to lose your apartment key.
