Kroenke Buys the Angels for $3.9 Billion, Lane Kiffin Is a Snake in Snake Country & Don't Pay CJ Stroud

from The Sporting Tribune Today · host The Arash Markazi Show, Bleav

Everything in sports is for sale — and this time the buyer matters. Stan Kroenke is purchasing the Angels for a reported $3.9 billion, an MLB record, and Grant and John Browner explain why Angels fans just hit the owner jackpot: the land around the stadium, the LA Live-style build-out coming to Anaheim, and John's prediction that the Ducks end up in the Kroenke orbit next. Mykell Mathieu joins as a lifelong Angels fan ("the Galactic Empire has come to an end") and Steve Cofield of ESPN Las Vegas explains why the rest of baseball's owners should be nervous about a spender with no salary cap. Then John delivers his Lane Kiffin verdict — multiple national titles, because sometimes a snake lands in a place that loves snakes — and makes the case that Houston should not pay CJ Stroud until he proves it for two more years. It closes with Steve's read on NBA expansion in Vegas and the Portland ownership mess John says smells exactly like what happened to the Sonics. New episodes weekday mornings. Follow the crew on X.
