    I've made an offer to buy the Philadelphia Eagles. But evidently they didn't accept my million year payoff schedule.

    Cowboys, theyre the worlds most valuable sports franchise. Could wait a couple years and make a few billion selling it or just keep enjoying the revenue.

    The fandom type pick would be the Padres so I could have the satisfaction of firing AJ Preller

    Are there any WNBA teams for sale?

    I gotta go with the Patriots as well.

    I would invite my best friend from High School, then, he and I would decide who else could come into the suite. I would invite perkdog as the "entertainment executive", that is when he wasn't hammering down his favorite beverage. Lobstahs and seriously good steaks for all. Maybe I'd buy a Longhorn Steakhouse and have catered meals.

    After the game, we'd limo over to the Encore Boston Harbor Casino and play blackjack in the High Limit Room.

    Be careful, true story, Leonard Tose, former owner of the Philadelphia Eagles, literally lost his team playing high stakes blackjack at the Atlantic City casinos.

    Better revise your fictional dream, or you may lose your fictional team. 😉

    And Maverick from Topgun

    The Detroit Red Wings.

    Three famous people? Well, #1 would be Steve Yzerman except he'd be working for me so no need to invite him. So, after that, it would be other hockey people: Gretzky, Vladimir Konstantinov, and Scotty Bowman.

    Perkies? I assume Perkdog still has these two on speed dial.

    Oh, BTW, the position of "entertainment executive" pays $500k per year, private jet, and occasional access to my mega million dollar yacht, and of course my mansion on Lake Winnipesaukee you know where. Did I forget four lifetime front row monstah seats??

    If asked last year I would have said Patriots and fired the coach and sent Brady and Gronk to the fountain of youth.

    Every game would be a bark at the park event. Me and my wife would hold pre-game adoption events for any local shelters interested. As far as famous people being invited, I would go with Bobby Cox, Tony Larussa, and Ozzie Albies. All 3 are big time animal advocates.
