Support the independent voice of Dallas and help keep the future of Dallas Observer free.
Don't remember if the Texas Rangers have ever had an owner with as grand of a vision as Chuck Greenberg.
Have no idea if it will help them pitch, hit or finish better. But, regardless, it's nice to hear an owner recognize where he is and what his should strive to be. As in, not a penny-pinching team satisfied with attracting crowds over winning titles.
Q: Will the Rangers spend like a big-market team?
You are gone, Tom Hicks. But you are soooo not missed.
(In related news, pitcher Ben Sheets signed not with the Rangers but rather the A's. Hmm.)
Keep the Dallas Observer Free... Since we started the Dallas Observer, it has been defined as the free, independent voice of Dallas, and we would like to keep it that way. Offering our readers free access to incisive coverage of local news, food and culture. Producing stories on everything from political scandals to the hottest new bands, with gutsy reporting, stylish writing, and staffers who've won everything from the Society of Professional Journalists' Sigma Delta Chi feature-writing award to the Casey Medal for Meritorious Journalism. But with local journalism's existence under siege and advertising revenue setbacks having a larger impact, it is important now more than ever for us to rally support behind funding our local journalism. You can help by participating in our "I Support" membership program, allowing us to keep covering Dallas with no paywalls.
