However I'm LOL at the image of baseball fans who obviously love the game, the history of the game and defend the integrity of the game, defending Bud Selig. When has Bud ever had the integrity of the game as his prime or any semblance of his auxiliary motivation? Well, I will grant you the fact that Pete Rose still isn't in the HOF can be used as an example, but I'll claim that was Fay Vincent's doing and Bud didn't have the cojones to change it....
 if this seems directed at yens, but as you might be able to tell, I'm not to fond of B.Selig......
(so, how 'bout that DH crap? When are they going to get rid of that sh!t???  ) |
Don't start!!!
Yes, Bud's a dick. Pete's a dick, too. Pete is why Pete isn't in the HOF. Charlie Hustle is quite possibly my favorite ballplayer of all-time, and I would LOVE to see him inducted. Quite frankly, I think he lied about not betting AND lied about betting to get his way. I don't think they had anything concrete except hearsay, but Pete did it and knew. He didn't want spanked, so he went with a lie and his hidden betting didn't get outed.
Then he said "Yeah, I did it", but still didn't come clean. I don't think he ever will come clean. Poor bugger is half nuts, anyways. Another reason I love him.
I'd love to see the whole DH thing gone, too. Or put to both leagues.
