LeBron James Buys Part Ownership Of The Red Sox (YAWN!)
He was already a part owner of John Henry's foreign soccer team. Now, LeBron James is also a part-owner of your Boston Red Sox. It's hard to get giddy over this news—you know, yet another non-Boston billionaire running our storied baseball franchise. A Laker—a damn Laker owns our team now? Red Auerbach is spinning. Why can't we get local ownership like Bob Kraft? Oh, yeah, I forgot, the Commissioner wired the deal for Henry way back when over a local bidder. So, give another yawn, as another miserable ball-club takes the field for 2021. Maybe LeBron needs a tax write-off.
