LOL, does Russian Billionaire have a name?

[LisaM]

I was just working out and watching ESPN2, and the feed kept going by, "Russian Billionaire Buys Nets", over and over.

Does this guy have a name?

[Capt. America]

1. Abrahamov? If it is the same man who owns Chelsea in the EPL.

[LisaM]

2. I suppose I can look it up!

But isn't that funny, that they only identified him that way?

[Upton]

4. Chelsea's owner is Roman Abramovich

not "Abramohov" and it's not the same dude. This guy's name is Mikhail Prokhorov.

I already used to hate them when the Pistons played them in the playoffs.

11. He would only buy the Pistons to destroy them

Can you say WWIII?

I used to be a fan until Ratner purchased and then ruined the franchise all to make a few more $$$$s.
