Bud Selig bad for baseball

[obxyankeefan]

When can we get rid of some of these bad baseball rules that Selig gave us?

All star game decides home field for the WS. Just go back to alternating each year or let the team with teh best record have it.

Interleague games. I have hated this since it came around, I would much prefer you play within your league and have a balanced schedule. (yes you would have to either move Houston back to the NL or expand)

Wildcard. I have always hated divisions in baseball. If you are going to have this many teams in the playoffs each year do one big league and let the top 4 or 5 or 6 teams go to the playoffs.

Luxury tax. Either put a salary cap in baseball or don't, but don't give us a half assed tax that doesn't matter.

You're just figuring out Bud Selig is bad for baseball?

But yeah, I agree those are bad. The All Star game thing is just silly. It's a freaking exhibition. The stupid reactionary thing he did after that one year it ended in a tie was senseless. If you're afraid of running out of pitchers make it a rule where if it is tied after 9 innings,do a short Homerun Derby to decide the winner. Problem solved. (And if that ever happened I'm sure people would actually remember who won the all star game more than a day or two after it occurred)

nice.

I have known for a couple of decades, but I am bored and there is not much to discuss on the MLB boards.
