The Rangers and Astros don't crack the Top Ten on the Forbes' list of Major League Baseball's most valuable franchises, but that doesn't seem to bother Texans one bit. In fact, we kinda rebel against the richest teams, don't we?
Forbes Magazine did a little research and figured out who the richest person is in every state, and in Texas that person has a background in the retail industry, and it's a name you know if you've ever purchased a tamale, a diamond pendant and a fishing rod in the same place.
Several rock stars are on the new Forbes Celebrity Power 100 list.
The list is based on media-related earnings and visibility over the past year. Oprah isn't number one anymore!
