MLB Playoffs
The Fix is in…
This fan wonders if Vince McMahon from the Wwe was involved in the negotiations
and talks that averted the baseball strike.
The owners of the small market teams were crying poor mouth, can't compete with
the big market teams, and can't compete with the George stienbrenners of the
league.
Seems to me that the collusion accusations of strikes and strike threats in the
past have come to light in this years playoffs. I believe Vince and Shane and
even Stephanie McMahon were at the strike talks and convinced the owners to go
the route of wrestling and fix the out come and apparently they agreed.
Vince said listen up owners, fans love a villain and an underdog, and they will
tolerate the villains as long as the underdog wins in the end. They agreed to
have the yankee take a fall in the first round of this years playoffs to let the
underdog angels play either the small market poor a's or the contraction bound
twins. Everyone wins. George and his Yankees already have more rings than can be
worn at one time, the Yankees rake in millions with their popular logos and
sales of the popular players jerseys and lets not forget the Yes network. They
can sit out this year. The least they could have done is let the series go the 5
games….
