We have previously covered the strange events surrounding the sale of the Texas Rangers. Now, things appear to be at an end: Nolan Ryan’s group won the auction, beating out a group that included Mark Cuban (owner of the Dallas Mavericks).
Given how contentious the auction seems to have been (one of the lawyers for Ryan’s side apparently cursed out the lawyer for the court-appointed restructuring officer; remember, as part of this sale, the Rangers filed for Chapter 11), I would not be shocked to see additional legal action attempting to block the sale.
