It's amazing how "communists" come out of the woodwork when someone begins using "capitalism" as it was intended.
It's a business, for crying out loud. They've already got profit sharing. All that nonsense is an attempt to keep losing franchises in business.
What's wrong with market corrections? If the Twins can't cut the mustard....
Don't use the mores of amateur sports in the same breath with the professional game.
Everybody seems upset that player salaries are sky high. The American way is for the worker to get what he can. If somebody wants to pay six million a year for a guy who bats .245, more powser to him.

I'm a great fan of both baseball and capitalism, but if baseball were a free market, the Twins would be able move to New York and compete for the dollars of that large market.
MLB uses its monopoly powers unequally to the benefit of some owners like Steinbrenner.
