Not sure of his liquid on hand cash --Musk could spend one million a day for 1,095 years!

Seems like the source of all the rumors is posts on Facebook (as far as I could find). Forbes has the Cardinals valued at 2.55 billion so I'm sure Musk would be willing to pay over 5 times that. Sounds like a great business move.

Does this mean we can look forward to some “protester” scratching FU and spray painting “Nazi” on the Stan Musial statue.

Oh, probably. That's just the way the world works these days.

First I have heard of this. That would be just like the Dewitt's to luck into someone buying the franchise at 5x value. I'm open to a change in ownership!

And I agree with Baltic's comment about the AZ Cardinals!

But you're from St. Louis so unlike me you're not an arm's length observer!

I'm looking for head office action to hold the line on ticket price increases.

Right. It's a joke. If he wanted a MLB team the Twins are being shopped at less than 2 billion.

Is that only 1 billion per twin?
