Ted Leonsis blogs about Wizards, Verizon Center sale

An Update on Today’s NewsTed’s Take
Washington Capitals owner Ted Leonsis issued a statement via his blog about the recent Post article on his bid to buy the Wizards, Verizon Center and the D.C. Ticketmaster franchise outright from the estate of Abe Pollin. This is a “calm down everyone” move, but perhaps also a “hey, Pollins remember we had a deal” move on his part.

Until a time comes that Leonsis completes the purchase, Washingtonians are going to holding their breath because the last time a D.C. team owner died (Jack Kent Cooke), things did not go according to plan and we got…Dan Snyder.

I now expect this will be a long and nerve-racking process. Hopefully, the good guy wins.
