Sports letters: Magic for McCourt? It's Dodgers' biggest trade Magic Johnson is the new face of the Dodgers, while Frank McCourt emerges from bankruptcy protection to go from former baseball team owner to billionaire. Los Angeles Times photos March 30, 2012, 7:00 p.m. Brilliant move making Magic Johnson the face of the new Dodgers. He is the one man who can wash away the bad feelings left by the McCourts. Just remember, Magic - when you wear a No. 32 Dodgers jersey, the name on the back had better be "Koufax." Maurice Sanchez Coto de Caza I think it's safe to say that no other athlete has had the lasting impact on a city like the one Earvin "Magic" Johnson has had on Los Angeles since the day he arrived here in 1979. And no one ever will. The significance of an African American being part of the ownership of the first major league team to have an African American player is immeasurable in both its reality and symbolism. Charles L. Freeman Baldwin Hills There's a glaring typo in David Wharton's article about Frank McCourt on Friday. He quoted economics professor Andrew Zimbalist: "The good news is that Frank McCourt is gone," he said. He's not going to run the Dodgers anymore. The word is ruin, not run. Robert Ostrove Ventura Funny. I should be a lot happier than I am. We were promised Frank McCourt would be gone and he's not. He dragged our team through the slime and he's walking away not only with a billion dollars or so in profit, but he's still here. Shame on Bud Selig for allowing this to happen. I'm sure that Magic and his group will do a good, honest job with the Dodgers and eventually return them to power in the National League. That is indeed enough to celebrate. Long live the King, but not only is the old king not dead, he's singing and laughing It's not enough. Eric Monson Temecula
