If Islanders Owner Had A Second Chance To Buy The Team…

from Neil Best of Watchdog at Newsday,

Charles Wang to WFAN regarding the trials and tribulations of owning the Isles: “If I had to do it again, I wouldn’t do it.”

Not surprising, since he said the team is losing $25 to $30 million a year.

He also called the Nassau Coliseum as “dump.”

Great day to piss on the parade after winning the lottery last night. I guess this was his one chance in the spotlight to draw attention to his Lighthouse project, but don’t the fans deserve at least one day to feel good?

It occurs to me that, if the rest of us got to do again, we might not have him buy the Islanders, either.
