As the great pro wrestling announcer Jim Ross eloquently stated in several of his illustrious calls: “Business is about to pick up.”
And it’s a rather, shall we say, intriguing piece of business potentially.
As reported in the Wall Street Journal on Tuesday, Fenway Sports Group is interested in purchasing the Pittsburgh Penguins. This development would obviously provide some awkwardness within the Boston market if John Henry’s group completes the purchase.
The Red Sox and NESN highlight Fenway Sports Group’s portfolio locally. Other notable purchases include the reigning English Premier League champion Liverpool Football Club and Rousch Family Racing.
