We can't make this stuff up.
It's been, what, a week since the Bakersfield Jam announced they were folding? Now, one passionate fan is trying to drum up interest to buy the team. Hard to tell whether it's a joke or not, given the mix of humor and seriousness that runs throughout the post from "Ridiculous Upside" and responses from his homies and others on the SB Nation blogs.
One of the more recent comments, from someone proposing to move the team to San Jose, includes this gem: "You know why they lose money …the team is in freakin Bakersfield."
Upside's post did prompt this separate, serious post on what it would take to run a team in the D League). It's an interesting question. If the price were right would you go in with some buddies to buy a minor league sports team?
