I’ve grown up in Fort Worth, Texas but have never, ever been a Rangers fan because of Hicks. His son is actually one of my better acquaintances, but Mr. Hicks disgusts me.

There is nothing more frustrating than an owner who buys your favorite franchise solely for personal profit and greed. The Rangers will always be mediocre, but he doesn’t care. The media has been talking about how bad he is for years and years, but he doesn’t care. He is interested in one thing and only one thing: Money.

It’s terribly sad for me to watch this whole process of him buying a team and then relegating it to mediocrity to squeeze out every penny once again, but that’s how he is. The total lack of ambition he instills in his franchises is incredible.

I feel terribly sorry for all you Liverpool fans out there.
