If you had the ability to purchase a team, what team would you buy? Would it be your favorite team or would it be a team that you want to work with and build up the current roster? What changes would you make?

I would buy the Clippers, because you can get away with anything there, and still make money.

basketball-lakers,celtics,or spurs(for most of those teams...my goal would be to trade for some younger pieces)

baseball-cubs(get out and try to get some big sluggers or a pitcher...trade pena and dump fuku and aramis' contracts),yankees(easy money, easy players)

football-cowboys(make some better drafts picks, improve secondary),oakland(just because i want to see how i could improve that team...retain defensive players...sign a WR that can complement campbell), chargers(just cause,nice location,nice franchise,etc.)

mls-la galaxy(best organization)

Thunder would not be a smart buy in 15 yrs they will not be making money. It will be like the post Reggie era in Indy

it wasnt TOO terrible when they had artest and jermaine....then again reggie was there until like 05...so it was about the same time..

Reggie was the life of that franchise for the longest time. Who was the star on that team after he left? Jermaine probably, but then he got destroyed by injuries and was never the same. At least Granger gives them someone to cheer for. Or Collison.

I'd buy the Timberwolves and keep drafting players that play the same position

Without a doubt, the Oakland A's.

Buy the franchise, Give Billy Beane another $40M to play around with...sit back, and enjoy living in California w/ a perennial playoff team.

Minny would be a ton of fun in my opinion. Rubio, Johnson, Williams, Beasley, Love. So much potential. But then again at the same time, Minny sucks period and all that potential could pan out terribly. Still a helluva core of young prospects.
