| Re: Do you support a salary cap in MLB? Despite the fact that it would hurt my favorite team more than any other, I am in favor of a salary cap.
It is fair, and it's for the good of the league overall. Wellington Mara (the former owner of the NY football Giants) realized this, and that was why he was such a vocal advocate for the NFL's communist economic policy. He realized that the greater the number of competitive teams and the higher the quality of play, the better the league would do overall.
Under the old system, a few rich owners like him could take a bigger slice of the pie, but with the new system, they take the same sized slice as everyone else, but the pie is much bigger.
Baseball could use a similar system |
