		<description><![CDATA[I met Mr. Macciello at a Dodger blogger softball tournament, and he&#039;s extremely likeable and charismatic. His excuses for every issue I raised with him ranged from possible to likely, with in depth answers. You WANT to believe him.

As for McCourt, he&#039;s definitely a fraud. He split off almost all of the team&#039;s revenue sources into separate entities so that he could get around the covenants of his many loans that restricted what he could draw in salary. The &quot;Dodgers&quot; get no money from their own ticket sales and pay an outrageous $14 million to lease their own parking lots.]]></description>
