Breitbart:
Mitt Romney attempted to purchase a stake in the Miami Marlins a few months ago, and that effort stalled with no sign of return. Now, the Romney’s have shifted targets, and want to purchase a small share of the New York Yankees.
According to Jon Heyman at FanRag, “If the deal goes through, it is expected to be $25 million to $30 million per percentage point and thought to be interested in one or two percentage points. The Yankees are valued around $3 billion or more.
“Mitt Romney, in response to an earlier version of this story about his potential involvement in a sale, denied that he’s involved in the talks in a statement, per a spokesperson. The former governor of Massachusetts, Romney is a lifelong Red Sox fan and is sensitive to being associated with the Yankees after hearing early reaction from Red Sox fans.”
Romney has apparently conquered his sensitivity towards an association with the Yankees by making the purchase through his son, Tagg, as a part of the family business.

I guess this is what you do when you choke like a dog against Obama.
Oh my. Romney may finally get some balls.
What’s a yankee?
Same thing as a quickie, only you do it alone.
Romney is a lifelong Red Sox fan and is sensitive to being associated with the Yankees after hearing early reaction from Red Sox fans.”
Sniffing around the Marlins, now a secretive play for the Yankees? Not so sentimental for his beloved RS that a % ownership in the Yankees won’t cure. So long as he doesn’t strap the players to the roof of his SUV I doubt anyone gives 2 shites.
This Romney thing, what is it?
It leads to the obvious question: where can one buy a $35 Yankees™ ballcap?
If anyone can make the Yankees a bunch of losers, Romney can.
Oh good; more news about which I don’t give 2 shits.
Go Mets!
