Evil empires joining forces?

Interesting.  Penguins strike me as a decent value, but I'd be concerned about them being at the end of their star cycle.  At 15th in estimated franchise value, there's no premium, I think.  With NESN having the other Black and Gold as a minority partner, I don't think there'd be the opportunity to use that RSN to promote the Pens even outside New England on the national NESN feed. Still, it's a name and history franchise with a loyal base, kind of like their other properties.  Roush is the only real mistake FSG's made, getting into NASCAR past peak.
