Remember when you'd choose teams in hockey by throwing your sticks in the middle?
Or have two captains and choose alternately to form 2 teams?
What we have now in MLB, is like having the richest kids in the neighbourhood come with their piggybanks and buy off the most talented kids on their block.
After all, it is just a game but since it's still about winning and losing... money is ruining the game.
Just like in hockey, there are too many teams and the league is creating more discrepancy by allowing big transfers. The NHL has 30 teams. If they had 15 instead, every game would be packed and the calibre of players and game quality would be phenomenal.
I guess it happens everywhere, like in soccer/football- Beckham, Zidane, Ronaldo, Carlos, Figo all on one team.
I guess that's why the Olympics is so appelaing, as it's about amateurs... or is it about the richest countries?
BTW, I hope the Yankees get their ass kicked by the Jays this year.
