He then  began investing in entertainment companies, co-founding Major League 
Soccer as well as multiple teams, including the LA Galaxy, Chicago Fire, Houston 
Dynamo, San Jose Earthquakes, New York / New Jersey Metro Stars, and the Kansas 
City Wizards. In addition, Anschutz owns stakes in the LA Lakers, LA Kings, and 
venues including the Staples Center, The O2 Arena (London), and the Home Depot

active patron of a number of religious and conservative causes:

overturn local and  state laws that prohibit discrimination against individuals 
on the basis  of sexual orientation but was invalidated by Romer v. Evans after 
it passed.[12]
	* Helped fund the Discovery Institute, a think tank based in Seattle, 
Washington that promotes intelligent design and criticizes evolution.[13]
	* Supported the Parents Television Council, a group that protests against 
television indecency.[13]
	* Financed and distributed films with Christian themes, such as Amazing Grace 
and The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe,  for mass 
audiences through his two film production companies and  ownership of much of 
the Regal, Edwards and United Artists theater  chains.
	* Financed The Foundation for a Better Life.
	* In 2009 Anschutz purchased the conservative American opinion magazine The 
Weekly Standard from Rupert Murdoch's News Corporation.[14]Ron Force
