Congrats on 50 years of for Dodger Stadium.

Heard a few weeks ago that a group lead by Magic Johnson bought the Dodgers? Can you fill me on it please. THANKS.

No problem. It is as you state. Magic is basically the figurehead for a very savvy group of businessmen who paid $2 billion-plus for the Dodgers, and I believe the sale becomes FINAL on the last day of this month.

After that time, we will learn more about the new owners and their plans for the team. In the meantime, Dodgers fans are jubilant and the team is HOT.

The fly in the ointment is that we are not totally rid of McCourt, as he retains the stadium parking lot. This is totally funky, and I don't understand it myself, as I planned to celebrate the day he leaves L.A. for-EVER.

So, we have questions, as the business remains tied up in legalities (McCourt's specialty)......
