February 9, 20179 yr Samson was asked for a comment on this and he said "No comment" May as well have been a confirm IMO Yup. They've always denied any sale reports in the past. Since the last Forbes story, it's just been "no comment". Perhaps this is more than smoke...
February 9, 20179 yr Did you ask him? i dm him on grindr asking whats happening.. thus, that response
February 9, 20179 yr this wont happen pre-ASG.. This is actually my biggest question. Why is this coming up now? I guess the process is still far from completion obviously.
February 9, 20179 yr This is actually my biggest question. Why is this coming up now? I guess the process is still far from completion obviously. Laying down the frame work, hopefully.
February 9, 20179 yr i think mlb would be more than inclined to help this new owner out if it meant getting rid of loria finally. Good point
February 9, 20179 yr unless.... Loria is so narcissistic that he'll announce the sell around ASG and make the game about him and his era with the fish. the asg will be the culmination
February 9, 20179 yr Good point i dont think mlb has a problem with Loria anymore. this isn;t even close to a mccourt situation
February 9, 20179 yr Laying down the frame work, hopefully. Can't build a house without proper foundation. Makes sense a real estate developer would know this
February 9, 20179 yr Let's hope Mike Hill is not involved with any of the negotiations. Imagine the possibilities.
February 9, 20179 yr Let's hope Mike Hill is not involved with any of the negotiations. Imagine the possibilities. Somehow Loria would have to pay the new owner and hand over the team at the same time
February 9, 20179 yr Somehow Loria would have to pay the new owner and hand over the team at the same time that was the joke
February 9, 20179 yr Interesting that MLB would even let the team be sold to a non local entity. I'm sure they might make Jeff prove he tried to solicit local offers. Shit if Loria can get 1.6 bil for this shit show, imagine how much a real franchise is worth? 3 bil? 4 bil? The Steinbrenners are swimming in potential profits!

Stephen Ross is from NY...so are the Panthers owners. Not that unusual.
February 9, 20179 yr Stephen Ross is from NY...so are the Panthers owners. Not that unusual. Ross makes sense as the potential buyer I guess too?
February 9, 20179 yr Stephen Ross is from NY...so are the Panthers owners. Not that unusual. But I think I had read that MLB had wanted to give preference to local ownership. Or maybe it was just something I had heard from one of the big writers. Nobody cares about NHL. NFL is a different animal. Its probably Ross cause that makes too much sense. Another Miami franchise for him to suck at running.
