Earl Weaver Rules

There were rumors floating around about a month ago that Hall of Famer Cal Ripken, Jr. was interested in buying the Orioles and had met with current owner Peter Angelos about a staggered sale.  Angelos squashed those rumors by simply saying he wasn’t selling.  Now Ripken has come out publicly and said if Angelos were to ever sell the team, he’d definitely be interested.

Ripken’s company, Ripken Professional Baseball, already owns two minor league teams.  Then again, this means little until Angelos is willing to let the team go.  As far as the job Ripken would do, I guess you can say he can’t do much worse.
