Can't say much today. JoePoz is probably the best writer in the business (whether the business is blogging, sportswriting, baseball writing, Snuggie commentary, you name it), but yesterday he wrote what I think is one of the best pieces he's ever written in exploring the fundamental unfairness that is the Yankees payroll.
I'm going to refrain from comment, because I know a lot of great Yankee fans and don't want to get myself in trouble. They're a great team. The best in baseball. Their fans should be happy. I don't blame the Yankees for exploiting the system, I blame the system.
And there's nothing wrong with the game, not really. It's fine the way it is -- the causes are a little different, but the effects are that it's essentially the same way it's been for the last ninety years. But things that are "fine" usually have a lot of room for improvement.
