They are selling it because they have a 8.2 billion dollar debt, They need capital to pay the loans, so they are selling the cubs to help pay for that stuff. I couldn't be happier.

Also, this deal includes what like a 25% stake in the cubbies tv network/comcast?

that sounds right up cubans ally, he's always talking about tv and hd and hdnet, all that stuff.

I hope cuban can buy them. 2 of my 3 favorite teams are cuban owned.

mavs/cubs/cowboys. at least we know jerry jones has deep pockets, and money doesn't matter to any of these clowns. I love it.
