I'm guessing it will be more along the lines of what the release said, "capital investments" aka money for a new stadium (and I'm guessing it will be a lot more than the 200 million JR is supposedly willing to contribute...) 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As long as he’s alive I guess. This fits with the notion that Jerry just doesn't want to give up control. I'm just glad there is a succession plan in place that doesn't involve the Reinsdorfs. In 2034, he'll be 98 years old. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
