romad1 Posted December 8, 2023 Share Posted December 8, 2023 I'm reading about the David Rubinstein plan to purchase the Orioles. Quote Rubenstein, 74, is the co-founder and co-chairman of the Carlyle Group, a private equity company. So, he's going to pump and dump the franchise?

oblong Posted December 8, 2023 Share Posted December 8, 2023 Pistons have won 12 games in the last 12 months. 5 games in the last 10 months. If they lose tonight, that number goes down to 4 games in 10 months, as they won a game on Feb 9, 2023. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

romad1 Posted December 8, 2023 Share Posted December 8, 2023 Found this while surfing for Michigan content. Relevant to the discussion about the Orioles being sold off for scrap to make way for a Lane Bryant franchise at Camden Yards. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lordstanley Posted December 8, 2023 Share Posted December 8, 2023 I vaguely recall Detroit sports fans doing that some years ago for some reason. Was it a Harbaugh flight when he was rumoured to be joining Michigan? Or something else that instead didn’t pan out? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, it made for fun speculation at the end of a pretty boring winter meeting. I was listening to CJ Notkowski and Ryan Spilborghs on the way home from work yesterday, and one of them made a comment about who gets on a plane to go from Los Angeles to Toronto just for a birthday party (some reference to a sushi restaurant being booked out by Yusei Kikuchi. And I'm thinking to myself, well, give me that job and those paychecks, and that decision becomes a lot easier to make in the affirmative.

Edman85 Posted December 9, 2023 Share Posted December 9, 2023 Morosi appears to have done some shark jumping in recent years, it pains me to say. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
