Bite Your Lip McClatchyAfter reading my last post, some might assume that I am a consummate sucker, and they might be right. But I took great offense to some McClatchy quotes in today's PG:The problem, he said, is baseball's skewed economic system that has the New York Yankees at one extreme with a $197 million payroll and the Pirates currently at $33.6 million.It's about seven years too late for that argument to work on me, and quite frankly I'm tired of hearing it. I can believe everything else you said about wanting to win and investing in the team, but not the disparity excuse. You're the owner take action to fix whatever you think needs fixed, but stop blaming others for your failures. I mentioned before how moving into PNC Park was a blown opportunity, well the 2006 All-Star Game is another one. If there's no hope by that time next year, and we don't have two or three players on that team, it's going to be... I don't even know, it's just going to suck. posted by Rory at 2:29 AM | |
