2. I thought McCourt was the owner of the dodgers
Yeah some good people on the list as far as sports go, and my team's owner is a dem too but he's a bastard too, Angelos FYI.

7. Pete Angelos was a lawyer for mine or steelworkers that got hurt
He's a good guy politically but I want that ass to do a better job owning my birds. Surprised about Selig, I cant stand the guy.

4. Frank McCort owns the Dodgers, not the Sox ...
He put in an offer for the Sox, but was outbid by John Henry and Tom Werner (though John seems to be the public face of the pair).

I would have liked to have seen Frank as our owner, though. He's a good Boston boy! :)
