According to a report I read HERE, MSG LP which is part of Cablevision, which in turn is owned by James Dolan could lose their ownership of the New York Rangers. It seems there is a big dispute of who should control the teams website. Cablevision says as the owners they should, and the NHL says as the governing body they should. Now as a result it looks like the NHL may revoke ownership of the Rangers (we'll have to wait and see what repercussions that will cause)
Now I don't follow hockey all that close, but Cablevision also owns the NY Knicks. The best possible thing that could ever happen to the Knicks is for James Dolan to lose ownership, so hopefully the Rangers will be freed and the Knicks (and hopefully MSG) will follow. Dolan is just a guy who has cash and think it's cool to own sports teams when he actually knows nothing about the sport. All he knows is big names, which is why the Knicks are often full of players who used to be great but are now out of their prime.
I truly hope that some day NY sports teams will get an owner who cares about the fans and the city. I'm taking donations, I just need about a billion/a billion and a half dollars to make the purchase. Let's get moving on that...

I will contribute to the fund, but only if you are buying the Mets.
Well the Knicks are the initial team to purchase. Then the Jets, and then the Rangers. THEN the Mets.
