LA Dodgers

Sold to group for 2Billion dollars.

McCourt bought the team for 438 million back in the day, completely dicked it up and ruined it... annnnnnnd just made 1.5 billion dollars.

Oh, and McCourt still owns the parking lots? somehow?

"Hi Bob, this is Magic Johnson. I want to own the Dodgers and I'm looking for a few friends to help me out. Could you give me, say, $400 million to help make this happen? You can hang out with me in the owner's box once every couple of weeks. We'll have a few drinks, take a few pictures, it'll be great. Make it $600 million and you can have one Saturday a month, too. Call me back and let's talk about it, cause the team is filling up pretty fast."

The whole thing is crazy. McCourt quadrupling his money. Magic using $2b of other people's money to buy the Dodgers. Why can't any of these idiots buy the Braves?

Magic is more than a face in his group. He's made a ton of money since retiring and supposedly is a big part of the investment too. I'm happy his group got the team or if Cohen's group would have gotten them. Now it's time to clean up McCourt's mess, go Dodgers!
