Answer:

the partnership may be sued as well as the partners, and the partners' liability is unlimited

Step-by-step explanation:

Lenny, Sarah, and Sam sets up a football team which is set up as a general partnership and they are all the general partners of the team.

In general partnership, two or more individuals come together to establish an entity and agrees to share all the assets and legal liabilities as well as the profit and financial liabilities.

The football team is sued for negligence because an individual crashed the car who is running naked.

Thus the partnership may be sued as well as the partners, and the partners' liability is unlimited.
