Yeah, his kids are dumb as hell. I don’t even think they’ve ever been involved in the team (at least publicly).

I'll bet they either see the disaster team their father built or the amount of national media and the fanbase calling for Moreno to leave that they want nothing to do with it. 

If this was built like a winner with a great front office then they'd probably consider.

You guys make it sound like these billionaires give a crap what writers and fans on message boards say about them. 

They don't.

Some of us aren't afraid of a challenge.

Is that a reference to sausage? Passively hostile and suggestively oppressive.

Looks like somebody needs to revisit module 4 of the Q2 fiscal year 2022 sexual harassment training.

Can you imagine not wanting a team handed to you by your father?

Wanted to comment on this earlier, but figured I already made enough posts shitting on the team lately.

There's a good joke in there. That the kids were told "congrats. Here's a bullion dollar assets that only 30 people/groups of people worldwide can say they own. Literally don't have to do anything."

And the kids were like "meh... I actually just want your Truck and those travel steins grandma left us from germany, Dad."

If my 78 or whatever year old dad told me I could have the Angels or $3.5 billion right now I’d take the money. The only problem I’d have is deciding which yacht I’d stay on each week. Right now I’d be in the Mediterranean. I’ve been told The Bahamas are just too damn hot in August. You can see how there would already be too many decisions to make without the burden of hiring a GM.

They're not getting $3.5 billion right now. They might not see a dime for another 15 years.

No, but I enjoy baseball.

On the other hand if I didn't care for baseball I would have no business owning a baseball team.

i hope whoever the new owner is sees our tv broadcast coverage and is pissed that this is what the fans have to listen to, then responds by hiring actual professionals who know what they're doing.

What could the Angels sale mean for Shohei Ohtani, Mike Trout and Anaheim? These are the potential ripple effects

Moreno reportedly halted any idea of trading Ohtani at the 2022 deadline, and has repeatedly shown that he is, uh, not beholden to the best idea for the team’s success.
