He set it up as a classic poison pill, with different aspects of the team operations spun off into separate companies. For example, there was a real estate company that owned the parking lots and another company that sold tickets. I thinkt he stadium is actually owned by a different corporate entity. If he isn't selling those then selling the team is mostly a formality because he still may have control over a large portion of the revenue stream.carlsonjokhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15556989250983706634noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2700049103080920994.post-35023826360224225822011-11-03T01:22:46.228-04:002011-11-03T01:22:46.228-04:00I heard on ESPN radio that O'Malley's son ...I heard on ESPN radio that O'Malley's son has an interest and the financial backing to make it happen. I used B-R.com all the time. Sorry to see it won't be quite the same. I'm headed over to follow the new blog now. <br /><br />Good luck to your daughter. I grew up in the same small town with the same kids until 8th grade and then went to three different high schools. One of the things that helped me cope was staying in touch with my best friends. Hopefully your daughter can stay in touch with her friend and help her deal with moving.Play at the Platehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14231140141558021698noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2700049103080920994.post-18823857356459741512011-11-03T01:06:41.034-04:002011-11-03T01:06:41.034-04:00A few years ago, I made the switch from teaching 5...A few years ago, I made the switch from teaching 5th & 6th graders to 7th & 8th graders... and one of the biggest differences between those age groups is the change in their priorities. "Friends" become such an important part of a teenager and their shift to becoming more independent. I remember when I was in 8th grade, my best friend seemed more important to me, than some of my family members.<br /><br />I hope the "painful process" for your daughter is over sooner than later.Fujihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00749100861086458307noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2700049103080920994.post-2100699828143923492011-11-02T23:33:11.858-04:002011-11-02T23:33:11.858-04:00Andy ~

It'll make the times they talk and see each other all the more special and interesting.
