3rd inning and every Oriole already in the lineup has a hit

NHL yesterday: "Wow one of the best-run franchises in our league that won 2 titles and made the final in a three year span was just valued at $1.5 bil. We're doing great!"

NBA today: "Maybe our shittiest team just sold for double that."

When I saw that story earlier today, my first thought was wow Michael Jordan owns a basketball team?!?

Yeah, right in Charlotte - They had uniforms and everything :D
The good news is Jordan helped Charlotte get another team after (if I remember correctly) the previous owner screwed them.

The bad news is Michael Jordan was the owner of the new team.

I guess you could say Jordan did for the Hornets what Gretzky did for the Coyotes.

Technically the guy who started BET owned them first I think.

He did get them their name back though. And made a shit ton of money.

Guy just seemed to never be able to figure out his front office and refused to go outside for help in finding staff etc. which is what all the smart teams do these days (unless you're in the NHL, then you just go over your team's roster from 25 years ago and select accordingly).

Not only does the umpire in the Orioles-Cubs game have a 30" wide strike zone (horrible calls for both teams) ; he also lost track of the ball-strike count in the 9th. They had to go to review to award a walk.
