Tacoma Rainiers to Be Sold

Over the last few days I’ve received several emails asking me to comment on the Sonics sale to out of state buyers.  Everybody else is writing about that and it’s more relevant to another city.  This, on the other hand, potentially effects us.  George Foster has apparently reached a purchase agreement with Kirby Schlegel of Dallas for the Tacoma Rainiers.  The team is staying in Tacoma for the time being, but we’ll see as Cheney Stadium continues to age and the new owners figure out what they want from us.

    damn. muckraked the shit out of that shit. did you know this was going on steve? makes you wonder what else is going on at this very moment. who cares? we’ve got unoriginal attention whores that need makeup and stage to crawl up on, and flatulent middle-aged men to snap a photo of them. 253 pride indeed.

    A real estate developer gone bankrupt? I’m shocked.
