Well, I’m guessing Cuban is off the table now given his SEC troubles either because (a) he doesn’t want in anymore; or (b) because now MLB appears to have a legitimate, non-anti-competitive reason to keep him out.  Sure, if Cuban and Zell were still interested in doing a deal, Cuban was still high-bidder, and they were being thwarted by MLB they could sue, but I think such a beast would pretty much be DOA.

Take away the SEC and assume that Cuban was high bidder, yes, I think there would be a righteous suit if Zell wanted to advance it.  The anti-trust exemption has already once been interpreted to not cover franchise sales (Piazza v. MLB re: the sale of the Giants in 1992), and I think that if someone wanted to challenge the validity of MLB and the owners approving or disapproving of would-be bidders they would be successful.  I wrote about this a bit at the old site:

Pete—I’m a hockey idiot (I go to one Blue Jackets game a year when my brother visits, and otherwise I pay no attention).  Question: where would a team being moved to Canada go?  I would assume Tornoto could support more teams than just the Leafs, but are there territories and stuff?  Where is it suspected that the Preds would go?

Thanks to the post and comment must read and very informative.
