contraction will not help curb idiots like the one in NY. Do you think that the demise of three or four teams will make Steinbrenner slow down? Hell no, he'll continue to escalate salaries - what we need is a massive penalty on teams trying to destroy the balance of the game.

You can't look at baseball on a per team basis - it must be looked at on the whole. On the whole, it is sick - too much disparity between teams.

You want to look at a league that works? As I said before - the NFL.
