Shit! Is this really even debatable ?

RICKETTS has pretty much fucked up every single decision since taking over. Im sure CUban would have bought the rooftops and more sorrounding property after cleaning house and firing Lou and hendry...and not firing hendry and letting his stupid ass sit around and make important decisions .

I think he should hand the reigns over to his lesbian sister. She can play hardball (Jack Buck says:"or not?")

Illitch throws around money in Detroit as Cuban would have on Cubs. They do not have 5 titles.


He bought the Red Wings in the early 80s. They have won a few cups since, also at one point. Were arguably the most talented sports teams ever assembled. Not wading into the ownership debate because I hate the Cubs and no way Cuban would ever own a baseball franchise. Especially after suggesting that it was like being a mafia don.


My Illich point is valid. Baseball and Hockey are very different businesses. Anyway my larger point is A Cuban/Illich does not guarantee success. Hell even Steinbrenner lost...a lot.
