Its not enough to have the largest payroll in the history of baseball, its not enough to superstack the lineup with more all stars than any other team in history, its not enough to treat the sport of baseball like a red headed step child. Nope, now they want Randy Johnson too.
Why?
Because George Steinbrenner is a win at any cost kind of asshole who cares not in the least for the sport, he just like those big shiny trophies and he hasn't gotten one in a couple of years.
The sport is being ruined by the Yankees.
The sport needs a salary cap or it will continue to become a disparate have and have not sport.
Or hey, here's an idea. Adjust win/lose records based on team salaries. Low end teams would get bumped up and asshole teams like the Yankees would see about a third of their wins turned into losses. No it wouldn't be fair but is fielding a team with a payroll four or five TIMES more than some of the other teams fair? No, its not and it bothers the holy hell out of me that Bud Selig is such a weak little bitch that he can't and won't stand up to the players union and Steinbrenner and force a salary cap on the damned sport.
And enforce the anti-drug policies for chrissake!
