OT: Stephen Ross and AC Milan
Rumors coming out of Italy that if AC Milan must be sold to cover the current owner's debt, a group led by Stephen Ross are interested in buying the club (not the first time he has looked at purchasing the club).

switch our football loyalties from Roma to Milan.
Not from this Roma fan (from way before Palotta took over). Although, I wouldnt mind another American in Serie A.
If we follow that logic we would all be Dolphin fans. Gross.
Roma all the way.
What’s so bad about being a Dolphins fan ? It’s the NFL how can you dislike a franchise ? Just be a die easy fan like me. I’m a patriots fan but the second Brady retires I’ll find a new team.
Love the Jalen & Jacoby reference on "die easy"
As much as I love Ross for his Michigan contributions, I feel bad for the Milan fans given his poor Dolphins track record.
It should give them a boost since Inter recently got bought by new owners too.
Juventus will still dominate Italy since they have their own revenue stream from their own stadium.
Inter and Milan need to fund their own stadiums or renovate the San Siro.
I love that the Delle Alpi was so awful that Juventus bought it (before it even turned 20!) just so they could demolish the thing and build something else.
The San Siro could stand to be updated but it's no Delle Alpi.
Soccer is a completely different game than football, though. Miami betting the farm on Wallace and Suhs contracts was a terrible idea in the NFL, buying a couple players of that quality in soccer is exactly how every team wins championships.
If he wants to sell Donnarumma to Liverpool in his first move as owner I wouldn’t be upset.
I was a big fan of Alyssa Milano.
Otherwise, YNWA. C'mon you Reds and all that.
she could boss me any day..
This is an underachieving club with a huge payroll and looming sanctions from their spending spree. Don’t go near this team just because you want to own one and it’s available.
How's Sister Jean?
She is great ! Met her last week and talked for close to 30 minutes. She had me help her across campus to the graduation in their basketball and volleyball arena. Got a great picture with her that she, not I, asked for. Best part is everyone who saw me with her assumed I was her long time helper or something. People were talking to me like I was used to all the attention we got. I just went with it !
I liked how when the game was over, Jordan Poole sought her out and told her how he respected her and her team:

This is actually a great investment, if you go by the definition of the word investment: allocating time, effort, or money in the expectation of benefit in the future. Next year it might not look like the best idea, for the future its a very very very good idea to buy one of the most storied sports teams in one of the world's major cities.
I am definatly for this move. I like the San Siro alot, Still cannot root for AC Milan, my loyalty
is to Cagliari in SERIE A ! When Ibra was at AC Milan, i saw him destroy a free kick from like 40 yards out against Cagliari in person !
Americans almost bought Cagliari a couple years ago.
Cagliari actually has a very interesting American history, especially with the city of Chicago in the late 1960's in regards to American Professional Soccer and the Chicago Mustangs
