My old bosses at UCG, Bruce Levenson and Ed Peskowitz, freely concede that having failed to achieve their boyhood dreams of becoming professional athletes, they were able to achieve the adult version, owning a franchise (in their case, part ownerships of two, the Atlanta basketball and hockey teams). Even more startling is the fact that many of these properties' ownerships are not easily identified by their deeds.
