After eight grueling years, Los Angeles is finally rid of Frank McCourt as Dodgers owner, and Magic Johnson has swooped in as the franchise's savior. The NBA Hall of Famer's bidding group, which includes film producer (and Golden State Warriors co-owner) Peter Guber, former Washington Nationals president Stan Kasten,…
These are not happy times for the Dodgers. They're bankrupt and at the center of a hate triangle between the McCourts and Bud Selig. The worst part is how easily this all could have been avoided. While the team is struggling to make payroll from month to month, the McCourts' pre-divorce personal expenses could cover…
"We want more fans." Also, money.
Every morning, the fine folks at Sports Radio Interviews sift through the a.m. drive-time chatter to bring you the best interviews with coaches, players, and personalities across the sports landscape. Today: the former(?) Dodgers owner makes a case for his stewardship.

Frank and Jamie McCourt, those feudin' and fussin' co-owners and estranged spouses, spent good money — really good money — on an elderly man who sat at home in Boston, watched Dodgers games on TV, and sent positive energy.
Frank McCourt has big plans for the Dodgers brand. Try a football stadium, couple of cable channels, expansion to China, and — because it's worked so well for American owners — a Premier League team.
