[QUOTE="GTNavyNuke, post: 53619, member: 322"] I know it's an over simplification. Here's the straight view that I have: money buys the best players and there is no salary cap. It's all about entertainment and maximizing profits in which the higher paying markets can make a lot more. Therefore I haven't been to a MLB game for about 10 years since my son and I went to one. (Orioles and Cal Ripken stayed till 1AM signing autographs.) I probably haven't watched many in the last 10 years either. I would agree that the Rays should get a handicap against higher paying teams. And I always root against the Yankees, because that's how I was brought up as an Orioles fan. My whole family does (my brother and one sister are Red Sox fans.) I don't know about the Orioles owner (that's how little I follow them now) so I'm sure not going to defend him. Given the Orioles record, it would be hard to defend him. :cry: Like I think I said in another post; "The Orioles have pretty much cured me of following MLB." I really like the college game since the best players get siphoned off to MLB out of HS. Makes it much more competitive - like we see in the current NCAA tournament. [/QUOTE]
