Owner Drayton McLane putting his Houston Astros up for sale - ESPN

Mark Cuban is not interested in buying the team so I say we all throw some money at it and buy this franchise!!

Your driving range + a few joints of your best stuff should be enough to get it done.

That wouldn't even get us a Double A ballplayer...but its a start

I'll start selling kids from work. Child labour will get us there.

McLane reportedly wants to sell the Astros for $800 million, which is absurd. That's all I got to say.

I'll sell my kids as well. I think we can generate enough profit in a weeks time.

Asking for $800 million when it is only worth $400 million. I think McLane has his pants tailor-made because he's got some balls.

I believe Mark Cuban was interested in buying the Rangers only because owning the Rangers in addition to the Mavericks would have given him more leverage for a mega TV deal in Dallas. The Astros, being in Houston, do nothing for him.

Start high and negotiate down. Basic business sense. His group is probably looking around 600-650 million.

450 million of that pays for Carlos Lee's meals.

When his asking price starts at $800 million, there's nowhere to negotiate but down.
