To heck with Oprah, Larry Ellison, Magics Johnsons, David Geffen and the others. We freepers can do a better job. TV just said the Bunny Ranch owner is putting in a bid. If he can then so can Free Republic. Lets get in on the action before AlGore and Rush Limbaugh put in their bids!
And best of all we would not run the team like a plantation!
Nothing motivates a politician to vote for a new arena / ballpark subsidy like the computer-generated view of the field from his “comp” tickets.
I’ve been doing that for all sports pretty much since the mid 80s.
The best way is to cut out cable TV especially any sports packages. This is the main way they get money out of you and me.
Surely you're joking!
What should any sane person want to do that?
Oprah and the National ******ball Association/league/franchises deserve each other!
The baseball strike did it for me. I grew up in the 3rd world and these jerks are complaining about being mistreated for millions of dollars a year? please.
I suspect Sterling had been targeted by blacks to extort his ball club, and his policy was then to not entertain any blacks to avoid the risk.
Their 24 hr frenzy to deny him his right to free speech and then to try and steal his possessions appears rigged, IMHO.
That's racist.
As Odumbo says, "that's not America; that's not the face of America!
No more than 16% black players. s racist. Oriental and Australian Bushmen must also be represented!!
Better hurry it up before one Henry Samueli—the co-founder of Broadcom and the owner of the Anaheim Ducks—does it first.
Even if I had the cash there is no way on Gods green earth I would buy a sports team unless its a NHL team.
Baseball, Basketball and Football teams are full of steroid fill creeps and criminals who act like tough guys but whine and complain about the water temp in the whirlpool or stuff like that.
