My "socialist" theory of baseball championships--- [View all]

That money should not be allowed to predominate (buying up the best players, etc)---

so the New York Yankees ought to be disallowed from winning so many World Series, by virtue of new rules which would limit such from happening, and give other teams a fair chance!---

No ONE TEAM ought to be allowed to BUY 27 world series championships out of 100 or so!

(I never got further into the particulars, but presumably there would have been a particular formula about league championships, and how many had been won by any particular team within a particular number of years....)


As such, I am very happy to see the Los Angeles Dodgers leading the Yankees 3-0 in Game 3 of this year's 'World Series' championship..... headed towards their 3rd win in this world series, in front of the New York crowd, no less!


Sorry Yankees fans---- but you've won more than ENOUGH in the past 100 years!

However, it has been one hell of a competition throughout--- pitching duels in every game, even though each side scored a number of runs...
That first ever World Series GRAND SLAM homerun by LA in extra innings of Game One was certainly a historic moment!
