A pro sports team becomes “our team” when it is successful. It is “his team” when it is NOT successful. The St. Louis Cardinals‘ 80-year of success means Bill DeWitt owns “our team.”
If any fans should appreciate having an honorable gentleman owning it’s hometown team, it is St. Louisans. Does the name “Stan Kroenke” ring a bell? Cardinals fans should begin each day thanking your deity of choice for Bill DeWitt.
The DeWitt Family makes its fortune in several areas including over fifty Arby’s franchises. Did you know that? But Baseball has been a staple of the DeWitt portfolio for over 100 years.
