I very much doubt this ownership group will have to pony up over 2.6 billion for the Mets right now. If the Mets or another team does sell, it will be interesting to see for how much.

My view is that if their money is real, if they can be part of a package to get the Wilpons out, and if their group is sufficiently capitalized overall, which is absolutely critical for a NY team, I'm all for it. It's like getting rid of Lurie in Miami, culling the herd, addition by subtraction, call it what you will.Only the madman is absolutely sure. -Robert Anton Wilson, novelist (1932-2007)

As a tax accountant, it strikes me that it would be better to sell, pay the capital gains tax if any, and deploy the money on something "profitable".

Lurie is the Eagles' owner -- orders of magnitude better than all of their previous ones. And not a troglodyte on social issues like most NFL owners are.
Loria is the con man who owned the Marlins.Originally posted by Kevin SeitzerWe pinch ran for Altuve specifically to screw over Mith's fantasy team.
