Did you hear about the minor leaguer, I think his name was Matt Jones, came across billions of dollars worth of some stone in his back yard. He is now looking to buy the LA dodgers, the team he was in the farm system for.

I heard about it the other night on ESPN. They said he is trying to get on the Dodgers. They said he bought the 50+ acres for 50,000 and there's 2 billion worth of stone. He doesn't know if he is going to purse into it because of the cost to start a quarry.

He's not trying to buy any team. They said there's UP TO a billlion dollars of stone in there, but to get the money he has to get at the stone first. To get at the stone, he still has to quarry it, which will take an awful lot of capital. He won't have any left to buy a baseball team... Where did you hear this?
