Jerry Reinsdorf will also be inducted into the Get Taxpayers To Build Things For Me Hall of Fame, as soon as taxpayers build it for him.

The war rooms, scouts and coaching he assembled to acquire Jordan was HOF worthy

Reinsdorf Buys Bulls
February 09, 1985|By Bob Sakamoto, Chicago Tribune.


29 INDIANAPOLIS — Jerry Reinsdorf, who is already a co-owner of the White Sox, will become majority owner of the Bulls by March 1 under an agreement announced Friday.

Lester Crown, the Bulls` chairman of the board, said Reinsdorf and his group will buy 56.8 percent of the team, reportedly for $9.2 million. Twenty- six percent of the team will come from the estate of Arthur Wirtz. The remainder will come from minority owners Philip Klutznick, Walter Shorenstein and George Steinbrenner. Crown, managing partner and vice president Jonathan Kovler and Lamar Hunt will remain as partners.

End of story. The man owns one of the most succesfull franchises ever and has worked his ass off at keeping labor peace. Yeah, he got lucky with Jordan, but if the Bulls win a coin flip, they get Magic Johnson before that. Love that David Greenwood!

You left out how he stuck his nose in Cubs business with his buddy,the used car dealer. I like how he does take care of his guys. That shows class.

BR, I am ashamed of you falling into the fools mindsets that I hate Jerry. I dont think I am the only one to criticize the dealings regarding the Cell and his manipulation of the state to achieve it. Personally though, I couldn't be more thankful to him for some of the best times of my life.

Zell, Cuban, Bud...it had Jerry's fingerprints all over it.

I once asked Bud about the purchase of the Cubs and he told me Jerry had nothing to do with it. lol

I don't think you really hate him, but I am surprised you seem excited at the possibility of him being in the hall of fame.

Honest to god, Big Fan should. Everyone on ESPN would be like, "Who the fuck is this guy w/ a bag on his head?", but Jerry would know.

Don't think I am calling it excited either.

I am sure there is some criteria of "promoting the game of basketball...blah blah" and Jerry has tried to drop some serious Bulls money on parks throughout the city, Charities etc.

He is the chairman of the team, he gets the credit. They did win 6 rings....

After they put Dr Jerry Buss in back in 2010, you knew Jerry was coming soon.
