If you could be a member of the Whitesox organization...

Or you could pull the Loria/Dolan/Pirates' trick and run the franchise into the ground, pilfer all the (revenue sharing) profits out of the team, pocket a HUGE capital gain by selling the team and then retire to the island of Milena. Or just buy Milena.

 

Actually, I wouldn't retire. I would buy a minor league franchise (probably in the Midwest League), those are much more fun to operate. And that way you'd still be close enough to make it to quite a few Sox games in person.

 

FYI, did anyone see where Frank McCourt didn't know where he "misplaced" the $2.5 million he got when the Dodgers' sale went through, and also professed unwareness of "dodgers.com"? Incredible. Arte Moreno must be laughing up a storm (just not at this season's results).

Umm... no. I said Steinbrenner. He didn't file for bankruptcy, did he?

Where you're going to get that kind of revenue outside of the NYC media market then becomes your question. If you try to spend like him without having the revenue stream, you wind up doomed.

The chairman brought us a WS title. Not bad considering the ineptitude in this town concerning baseball championships.

 

The chairman didn't pitch one game in the playoffs.

2005 was a one-hit wonder.

He and his cronies have owned the team for 28 years.
