Oh, well, aren’t you an interesting little turn of events.

(Spoiler alert: McCourt agreed to sell the Dodgers, if you didn’t hear. And if you didn’t, I will wait while you do a happy dance. … Okay, ready?)

When he spoke out last fall, in urging owner Frank McCourt to sell the Dodgers, O’Malley said he had no interest in returning as owner or president of the team.

McCourt agreed to sell on Tuesday, in an abrupt end to his two-year court fight to retain ownership of the Dodgers.

“The health of the organization has deteriorated in the last 12 months,” O’Malley said. “The standing of the organization in the community has deteriorated.

“I am confident I can restore it to respectability quicker, sooner and probably better than — or at least as well as — anyone else.”

I’m pre-empting the argument that the O’Malleys shouldn’t have sold the team in the first place; it’s not their fault that this mess happened and it wasn’t financially feasible for them to retain ownership at the time, so let’s not go there. Aside from that, what are everyone’s thoughts on this?
