Stan Kroenke now has covered all bases when it comes to sports ownership, by buying a team that literally covers bases.
Via Sam Farmer of the L.A. Times, Kroenke has bought the Los Angeles Angels of Major League Baseball.
Kroenke also owns the NFL’s Rams, the NBA’s Colorado Nuggets, the NHL’s Colorado Avalanche, the MLS’s Colorado Rapids, and Arsenal of the Premier League.
The purchase price for the latest transaction was not announced. (Via Bill Shaikin of the Times, it’s a record price — north of the $3.9 billion recently paid for the Padres.)
“The Angels are a storied franchise anchored in a great market,” Kroenke said in a statement. “We look forward to an exciting future with the Angels organization.”
Kroenke has acquired the Angels from Arte Moreno, who owned the team for more than 20 years. The Angels are in the midst of an 11-year playoff drought, which likely will extend to 12 in 2026.
#HelmetHornsMatter
“Well, the color is good, I like the metallic blue,” Youngblood recently said while laughing, via NFL Journal. “The horn is terrible. It looks like a ‘C.’ When I first saw it on the logo I honestly thought it was a Charger logo.
“Now when I see it on the helmet, it just isn’t a ram horn. There is no distinct curl like a mature ram horn. I don’t know how the Rams could get that wrong. That is your symbol and it has been for what? Seventy years or more? Longer than I have been alive? It’s just not us, it’s not the Rams.”---Mr. Ram Jack Youngblood
