Any true Dodger fan knew that Fox's Rupert Murdoch selling to F.McCourt was a huge folly, that McCourt was underfunded and was being allowed to demonstrate his ability to orchestrate the ridiculous in financing schemes. Fox assisted, and so did Bud Selig and MLB by allowing the sale to take place at all. As much as I disliked Fox, I suspected that we were about to experience worse. We did.
That Selig has had the guts to step up and act as he has to this point has to be applauded, considering that he was in large part responsible for letting the sale happen in the first place. There had to be other offers out there....Fox knew that they had a puppet in place for them to manipulate as they wished with any tv deal they could wring out of the PARKING LOT ATTENDANT!

Yes, yes please yes!!! And please hurry up Mr. Selig!
T Stone - 13 years ago
When McCourt went on the radio and talked with fans the guy who said he was a die hard fan but wouldn't go to another game till the team was sold had it right. Please sell the team so that we can get over this turmoil!
J Davis - 13 years ago
Since this bankruptcy thing could take a long time and the judge gets to decide, maybe the fans of LA should send a clear signal that they want new owners by holding a protest rally or having a vote to show the judge that it isn't just MLB that wants Franky out!!! While low attendance shows lack of support for the current owner, it could also be misinterpreted as bad performance on the field.
Dennis - 13 years ago
I am just sooo sick up and fed with this whole sorry mess and what's worse is that I don't see an ending to it anytime soon. Rather than doing the right thing and letting go of the Dodgers, Frank and Jamie would rather drag the club and all of its fans through the muck of a seemingly endless legal fight in order to try and save their lavish lifestyle. Dodger fans who support the team in more ways than one deserve better. Baseball deserves better. I will always be a Dodger fan come hell or high water but I will NOT go to Dodger Stadium until Frank and Jamie are gone. I've had enough.
Rich Shelly - 13 years ago
Let it go Frank. None of us true fans are going to show up at the ballpark until you are gone. You have ruined an iconic franchise, and it could take 4 or 5 years to repair the damage you have created. PLEASE go away. You can't win this one Frank.
Sincerely,
A 'stay home' fan.......

Is McCourt's strategy to make the Dodgers so debt ridden that no one will want to buy them? And more importantly, does he really think if he muddles thru all of this and retains control of the team, Los Angeles and Dodger fans everywhere will somehow forgive him and support him? I cannot fathom any reason other than trying to save his financial skin that McCourt continues to battle - it has to be obvious that fans will never support this team while he is the owner. I hope the boycott reaches the point where no one, and I mean no one, shows up for a home game. Break the all time low attendance mark for a game at Chavez Ravine, and imagine the national attention this will get. In the meantime, envision the Dodger bullpen and overall lineup if the $100 mil Frank squandered on himself and others had been used to develop and purchase solid players.

Boycott Boycott Boycott all & everything Dodgers; games, TV, radio, advertisers.

If the Judge gets a million of them he will see the picture. Who has that email address? Post It. Moon Shot.

As a Giants fan, I have drawn more than a little amusement and at times outright laughter at this convoluted, B grade soap opera that the Dodgers and their enlightened management have engaged in for the last year and a half. But I have to admit, the Dodgers are a necessary and valuable component of Major League Baseball itself. I find it hard to believe that an owner who has debased himself, his family, and the team he owns can be taken seriously any longer. My biggest concern is that under Selig's leadership, MLB will exhibit the deft hand it did heading off the MLB PED tragedy in the 1990s. So heres to better times when we can beat you and not feel like we're kicking a dead cat.

The McCourts have raped the organization for their own personal lavish lifestyle. While Frank gets the bulk of the blame now because he is the one at Chavez Ravine, Jamie and her shopaholic tendencies are just as much to blame. (Me thinks buying all those mansions was more her idea than his--particularly since she initially wanted them under her name in case the Dodgers went belly-up.) They got sucked into the Hollywood flash-your-wealth lifestyle and Dodger fans are paying the price.
joe czajkowski - 13 years ago
the quicker they sell the team the better. i have been a season ticket holder since 1983, at first i excepted the mccourts, but once they started to raise the price of my season tickets and to find out for their own personal use, the day can't come soon enough that frank is gone. i actually hate that liar.

Bud should immediately sieze controll of the Dodgers and put them up for sell. The clauses in the contract McBroke signed and agreed too, allows MLB to take over his team and put them up for sell. (aka Bankrupt ). Dodgers fans are sick and tired of watching this clown in action. The way he conducts business is typical of a land developer. Everyone else does the work and he dosen"t pay them. Of course there may be a few developers out there that don"t conduct business this way but very few. The Dodgers are now the laughing stock of the leauge. Allowing every weak team ( including the Giants ) to kick there butts night in and night out. Im sorry but this has gone on long enough, come on Bud show us fans just how much pwer you have. WE ALL WANT TO SEE IT !!!!!
Vic - 13 years ago
Frank McCourt has proven over the past years that he's interesting in owning the Dodgers as long as the franchise continues to provide opportunities to line his pockets. When money got tight, he immediately ceased to invest in the team. Major League Baseball should act in the best interests of Dodger fans everywhere, cite the many clauses in the league's bylaws and constitution that McCourt has violated, and seize this team, take over its operation as soon as possible, and get searching for a new owner who will truly seek to restore the Dodgers to their rightful place among America's most storied sports franchises. But, this time, all prospective owners should be able to carry the mail, financially, or they should be handed their hats and sent on their way. Now hocus-pocus purchase agreements or financing plans.

Go away....you are a classic example of GREED run amok. My name is Frankie this is how I roll, my rolodex is filled with attorneys and I will be happy to bankrupt a once proud franchise.

JMO - 13 years ago
The Dodgers need a facelift, new ownership, new strategy for fans. All they have now is gang bangers and trailer trash. Attendance is down because no one wants to be subjected to the east LA mentality of drunks and foul language, fights, smelly people. No way can you take a family there like the old days and enjoy a game. Anaheim or San Diego are my venues now, you don't need to be armed at those games.

Nathan Pratt - 13 years ago
I disagree with you Cornell - the FOX deal is a horrible deal for baseball in general, written up in Frank's time of need, robbing the 2014 club to pay 2011's debts. Mr. McCourt cannot "get himself out of this mess" because he is toxic to the media and the fans; goodwill will not return until he is gone. If you approve the deal, you condemn the Dodgers to years of declining attendance and TV ratings.

Both MLB and Frank McCount are responsible for this mess. Baseball should have kept an eye on this from the beginning. I don't know if baseball audits all of it's teams every year or not, but if there don't, their need to start. The McCourt's did go overboard, by buying all of those houses and the lutury spending, but if the commissoner had kept an eye on them, this probably would have never happened. There each share equal responsible in this mess. The commissoner needs to approve the fox deal and let Mr. McCount get himself out of ths mess. Everybody deserves a second chance, but baseball needs to keep a better eye on these teams. The commissoner is paid to oversee these teams and he needs to start doing his job. First the Mets, now the Dodgers, what team is next?
