Jerry Reinsdorf has no plans to sell the Bulls in wake of Sox rumors

“The Chairman” might sit atop both ownership groups, but as Wednesday was a reminder of, in some instances the Bulls and the White Sox operate very differently.

With a report surfacing that chairman Jerry Reinsdorf was “open to selling” the Sox, the question around the United Center was if it was true – a fact that some in the know have strenuously dismissed – what would it mean for the Bulls?

Very little.

The Sun-Times reported last year that both Jerry and Michael Reinsdorf see owning an NBA team as an investment to keep in the family, not only because it’s a salary-capped league, but one that continuous to grow in value with the national television deals and expected expansion coming in the next few seasons.
