Don't expect a QB splash from new ownership this year, or another name change any time soon. https://t.co/PwZWcGLhAj pic.twitter.com/bGKwA8wcHX

Canadian billionaire Steve Apostolopoulos has become the newest potential bidder to tour the Washington Commanders’ stadium and training facility as he seeks to buy the franchise, league sources told @WindhorstESPN and me.https://t.co/u3CjblpLha

3.9 billion isn't a ton when compared to the other names who have been mentioned. https://t.co/JLYXlL1ceb

Apostolopoulos also recently had discussions to buy the NBA's Charlotte Hornets from Michael Jordan but has focused on the opportunity to purchase the Commanders, sources told @WindhorstESPN and @AdamSchefter. https://t.co/VNl8ZKqDc0

I don't want him to buy them because I refuse to learn how to spell that. https://t.co/JqcLoglA41

Fan Poll: There seems to be a general positive reception to the Mitchell Rales/ Josh Harris/ Magic Johnson group of Bidders.

Would you now be disappointed if Jeff Bezos (hypothetically) swooped in and bought the team?

A week ago, I'd argue he was the first choice of many .

Commanders fans, do you want the new owner to change the name of the team again?

Prepping for tomorrow's livestream and thinking, I'm not sure where Bobby Wagner fits a roster at this point. Who needs a veteran MLB and is a contender (or at least seemed like one last year)? Giants or Vikings, maybe? They have like *no* money.

Kimberley Martin: “I can tell you that there is a family friend of the Jacksons, who has called a couple teams serving as his representative. This individual is not NFLPA certified, so teams are not going to discuss business with him.”
