Bob Nutting gave an interview to the Trib in which he said . . . basically nothing. At least so far; apparently, there’s more to come later. This should be completely unsurprising, especially with Derek Jeter no longer available to bring his PR genius to Pittsburgh, but here it is anyway:
“No one has approached us (about selling),” Nutting said. “I haven't heard any rumor. I haven't had any discussion. I'm not aware of any buyer. And I have no interest in selling the team.”
Nutting’s goal, which has been stated previously, is to pass the team on to his daughters and create a Rooney-style dynasty.
