Bob B.Leon prefers this board not get too political which is really where this topic would go if allowed to follow its logical conclusion. A couple points...
1.MLB does not own the sport of Baseball. They should be mindful of their caretakers role.
2. I agree with Bill James (and others) the game would probably be IMPROVED if MLB lost their anti-trust exemption, especially in small towns.
3. Don't want to pay "those prices" (tickets,beer,food,etc.) who does? Your local high school, amateur, college, youth, etc. team NEED your support. You'd be surprised how fun it is to get involved where your support REALLY matters.
4. Get involved with the game yourself (player, coach, fundraiser). It's better to light one candle than to curse the darkness...
Thanks.
