Hank's Rumors: Is Mark Cuban really interested in buying out Jeremy Jacobs?

BOSTON and DALLAS (December 23, 2006) — The Apartment404 Online Journal (found at Apt404Journal.com) has been informed by sources within the NHL leaue office that high level discussions are taking place between Buffalo, N.Y. based businessman Jeremy Jacobs, chief executive of Delaware North Corp., and Mark Cuban, internet billionaire and current owner of the NBA's highly successful Dallas Mavericks.

No further details available at this time.

Mr. Jacobs purchased the Bruins, one of the NHL's "Original Six" franchises, in 1975 for $10 million. Under Jacobs ownership the Bruins have reached the Stanley Cup Finals four times.

Mr. Cuban bought a majority interest in the Mavericks in 2000 for $285 million. In the following six years the team's record has been 340-152, by far the most successful period for the club.
