PrintI'm not a lawyer, but I know we have plenty of them here. How about we start a collective, pool up some cash and buy a stake. I've got 30k I'm looking to invest to start us off ... any takers?
Anyone have any thoughts on what a small investor or group would need to buy in at a reasonable level? Would Hick's sell to a collective of fans?
I may have had too much to drink already.

Not at all my brother
Work is great.
Wife is great.
Critters are awesome.
Even 401K is looking up.
Just not a fan of shitty diaries.
But I guess I could have toned that last comment down.
A little.

If I knew who you were, perhaps I'd try to deeply understand what you were attempting to do with that tired, overused GIF
I’ll go this far: Is it your contention that my post was a fail, or this diary?

On the contrary, that’s one I’d like to see more of.

Really just chill out. It’s not that bad honestly. Be happy.

Keep soldiering on and fighting that good fight.
If anyone should be standing up for shitty diaries the world over, it’s you.
Way to stick it to the man…

Phew.
Thanks for going easy on me Failey.
I can’t tell you how relieved I am you didn’t snap off another immasculatingly humiliating, hyper-madcap “Fail Gif.” It especially hurts because they always say FAIL at the bottom while showing somebody failing and whatnot.
You rock, Failey.

Lets see...
Forbes had the Rangers worth about $412M last Business of Baseball report.
So lets see, 1% would be $412,000. That would mean a 1000 LSB members would have to throw in $400 to get there…
I would be game, but how do you split the perks?
the perks is the question
lol wahat perks would one get? lol

KG: Oh yeah.
Scout: Well, he spent a lot of it on milkshakes.

I would happily put up 400 bucks to be part owner of the Rangers.
Just so I could walk up to Mark Cuban and say “YOU NEVER GET THIS!”
i think you may have hit the point exactly
I may have had too much to drink already.
my sig is better than yours
I'll throw my whole 401(k) value at this thing...
Of course that’s about $450 since being a new hire I’ve only invested into it for a month.
Stars in a Texas Night Sky, a Dallas Stars blog from a fan's perspective.
I've always thought it would be interesting if some of the rich players
pooled their money to be owners of the team they play for.
MY and Kinsler could probably plunk down $10-20M, and if Hambone gets an extension, he could be good for $5M.
JD: Adamant about 78 wins in 2009. Go Rangers!
I think Mario Lemieux
had partial ownership while he was still playing. Of course, he was a singular athlete saving a sinking franchise. I doubt it could work otherwise.

one of my fav players to watch.

If you have money to invest, I'd put into the blue chips- Transatlantic Zeppelin, Amalgamated Spats, Congreve's Inflammable Powder, U.S. Hay, and sink the rest into that up-and-coming Baltimore Opera Hat Company.
