PrintAccording to the Los Angeles Times' official Twitter account, Dodgers owner Frank McCourt and his wife, CEO Jamie McCourt, have separated in "a move that could place the future ownership of the team in doubt." Tim Brown of Yahoo! Sports notes that a similar situation in the Moores family resulted in the sale of the Padres last spring.

Argh. The next owners might actually have money. That’s the problem.

meh...
I’d rather the Giants get better than the dodgers sucking because of a crappy ownership situation. I thought the whole padres mess was kind of shitty and lame, actually. Same with the A’s and their lame owners.
But, that being said, I guess if it has to happen to somebody, why not the Dodgers?
I don’t know. A marriage falling apart just isn’t all that funny to me.
Context, people. More context is good. Less context is bad. If you're willing to be reductive, then you're willing to be wrong.
Funny would be Frank McCourt getting a football to the groin.

This isn’t how I would want to gain a competitive advantage though.
Bruce Bochy would like you to look at the career numbers and stop complaining.

If this affects the way the Dodgers spend, Sabean might say “Since Los Angeles isn’t spending money to win the division, why should we?” He might be cheap and spend on the same crap (cheap) since no one in the division is spending money.
"All I know is right now, you comeback and do you dwell on that? I think you're man enough to take it, you're man enough to chew on it, to spit it out and you learn from it. ... I think winners let it go. I think losers dwell on it and talk about it all week and that screws you up for the next opportunity going forward." - Mike Singletary after the 49ers loss to the Vikings
I agree. We may all be rooting against the Dodgers in this year’s playoffs, but if they actually win it all, it might spur Neukom to open his wallet to get this team to their level.

Not worth the risk. I will never accept the Dodgers winning as being a good thing.

Clearly the continued hostility between owners sparked dodger energy.
FROM THE DEVIL HIMSELF.
Peter Gammons said that life with the Dodgers is a living hell. Most sensible thing I’ve heard him say in years.
Proud parent of Waldis Joaquin!
why Mrs. Neukom didn’t leave her husband five minutes after he announced Sabean’s and Bochy’s extension is beyond me.

I keep looking to the right of all this and seeing "...Despite Inept Offense" and laughing out loud.
Honestly , I thought it was an Onion parody – to see that it was actually SB Nation just makes me laugh harder.

I thought this was Vicente Padilla starting game 2. LOL Dodgers
Congrats to my soul mate and birth brother Zach Wheeler on being drafted into greatness. Should I just buy my Wheeler jersey now, or wait till my next birthday?
Now that would be very LOL DODGERS.
