According to a few reports, the Remington group is preparing a gargantuan bid to overshadow the Sparks Group for the Ottawa Senators. Some believe the bid to be around $1,000,000,000, which has sparked new life in fans.

Many fans are now urging Reynolds to lend a helping hand to the struggling MLB club, the Chicago White Sox.
