Tom Hicks: It doesn’t necessarily have to do with winning

May 17, 2007

“All of these teams have become businesses in the past 20 years,” Hicks said. ” … This business has to do with fan affinity and brand devotion. It doesn’t necessarily have to do with winning.”

This is from Tom Hicks owner of the Dallas Stars and Texas Rangers. The Dallas Business Journal reported this last Friday. Why haven’t I heard about this until now? Why hasn’t this been all over local media? I haven’t heard it. Tim MacMahon just posted this at 12:43pm today over at stars.beloblog.com

This only confirms everything we have suspected for some time now. Bob and Dan have been all over Hicks for years now (Search Bob’s Blog for Tom Hicks payroll). Bob, just let me know what segment you will dissect this on Friday!

Please, will someone buy these teams from Tom Hicks!!!

  • I agree with your post, Tom Hicks is in it for the business aspect only. Jerry and Mark are fans of the game and their respective teams and fans reflect that. Tom hick said something about how the British soccer fan is more appealing than the fans that attend his games. What does he expect if he does not portray the image of a fan.

    Sell the teams tom, take the money and run and leave us fans to enjoy the game.

    P.S. I don't listen to BAD radio anymore because I can not stand Dan's damn whining. The Musers and Gordon are my favorite way to kick the morning off right.
