    Everyone here has there thoughts on him. And this won’t be a cheap acquisition, if it happens

    I hope he does. With what he's done for the Rockets, I hope he does the same with Chelsea.

    Manchester United we stand!

    Right now all he’s done is taken a western conference finals team and demolished it. We’ve gone from first to worst since he took over and it looks like it will be several years till we get back to contending status (if at all). Maybe he should demonstrate that he knows how to be a good owner and succeed before adding another franchise.

    Does he even know anything about futbol?

    Why can’t he bring the NHL to Houston instead. He already controls Toyota Center and the Coyotes are playing in ASU’s 5,000 seat garage next season.

    The reason the NHL is allowing the Coyotes to play in a tiny rink for 3 years is they really want that Phoenix market. They've sunk about 10 years into trying to make that work. A move to Houston probably isn't in Bettman's cards until the Yotes finally, officially can't get a deal to break new ground on the East side of Phoenix.

    That being said, NHL >>>>>>> Soccer and having a Houston team would be a dream come true for me. (Runs away)

    No way, maybe a partial small owner bid, but dude is in debt so much there is no way he can afford it

    My deepest condolences to all Chelsea fans. Also, congratulations to Arsenal, Tottenham and Fulham. As a matter of fact, congrats to all other Premier League teams.

    I've been laughing every time I think of this today.

    The audacity of a Galveston fried food tycoon who uber leveraged debt to pick up and ruin an NBA team and painted his family in the arena wanting to own a Premier League team in the UK. Its almost beautiful.
