What a two-faced back stabbing, well you get the point I was
going to make. Bud Selig came out in an interview recently at the conclusion of
the meetings in Kansas City by announcing how happy he was with the Giancarlo
Stanton and Miami Marlins contract the two sides agreed upon this week. Selig
was quoted as saying the deal was “objective of everything we did” when it came
to changing the game’s economic model including revenue sharing and the luxury
tax.
Nowhere in the statement did Selig mention that Jeffrey
Loria sold off players, had multiple fire sale, and gouged his fans both in the
stadium and by conning his way into having the fans pay for his new stadium.
Nowhere was Selig to be found when Alex Rodriguez scored his big contract(s)
with the Texas Rangers and the New York Yankees jumping up and down for joy and
for the game. I’ll leave you with this quote from the interview from Mr. Selig:
"What I like is individual
franchises making decisions to make themselves better, Selig said. "I've
been reading all the clips, and I do think they're happy in South Florida, and
they should be. It's a good sign, a very good sign for them, and that's how you
have to look at it."
Hypocrite.
