actually .. she didn't say that. what
she did say ... is this
Exit from ownership
On May 5, 1996, Schott aroused ire when she made statements favorable of Adolf Hitler, saying he "
was good in the beginning, but went too far."
[3] MLB again banned Schott from day-to-day operations through
1998.
yeah .. i'd say starting WW2 is going a bit too far
On April 20,
1999, Schott agreed to sell her controlling interest in the Reds for
$67 million to a group led by Cincinnati businessman
Carl Lindner. At the time she was facing a third suspension, failing health and an expiring ownership agreement with her limited partners, who planned to oust her. Schott remained as a minority partner.
she got her money. chump change by today's standards but 67M is always a nice check to cash.
