Hopefully it's somebody who has at least $1 million dollars to spend.

Apparently one of the bidders is ready to infuse up to $100 million of pure capital into the team. That'd be nice to see, no doubt. But I'll believe it when I see it!

It sounds to me like Citibank Financial was hired to find capital investors and not new ownership groups. So I have to assume the groups bidding on this 75% stake are looking for a good ROI and not wanting much to do with day-to-day operations of the club.

I'm glad to see that we maybe have someone interested. I would be even happier if they might put money into the team. However this still bothers me if it's an investment group. Makes me think we are just going to do this same song and dance in a few years.
