New MLS owner?
Here's the story:
A New York businessman said Friday he will make an offer to Major League Soccer next week to buy a franchise — either an existing team or an expansion club — and put it in either San Antonio or New York.
Andrew Murstein, who says he once considered buying the [San Antonio] Spurs, also lists Houston as a possible home for a team he predicted could carry a price tag of $13.5 million.
...Asked if he was interested in buying the Kansas City Wizards, who Dallas sports industrialist Lamar Hunt put on the market in December, Murstein said, "Anything's possible."
