I thought there was something against owners owning multiple sports teams (though that might be just MLB). Mark Cuban, owner of the Dallas Mavs, wanted to buy some MLB team, but wasn't allowed to because of potential conflict of interest or something to that effect. I understand the concern, say the owner takes all the money he makes from his one team and spends it all on the other team.

When Bob Sanders was 12, a cobra bit him in the leg. After 4 days of excruciating pain, the cobra died.
Tom Brady can throw a football pretty far. Bob Sanders can throw Tom Brady even farther.

Probably with all the Saints needs this season but I'm thinking the Hornets might be the team to go with

They aren't allowed to buy teams in different markets, but if they are in the same city, they can own more than one.

I think it had something to do with the MLB not liking Cuban, or something to that effect, so they barred his purchase of the team. Similar to Rush Limbaugh and the Rams.



^^^^^Don't quote me on that though. ;)

Thanks for clearing that up!

haha thanks. I'm really glad the Rams didn't get Limbaugh.
