The thing i resent about the Yankees is that it's not a level playing field. A $200MM payroll is going to get you a better team than a $60MM payroll.
The Marlins and A's and even the Cubs are anomalies. Year in and year out, the team with the better players is going to win more than the team without the best players.
George's only argument against revenue sharing (and it' a valid one) is how do you garauntee that the team will spend the money they get from revenue sharing on players and not just put it in thier pocket? IOW, why should other teams get into his pocket and take his money if they're not going to put it back into the organization?
My argument is that it works in football, it could work in baseball. Then you wouldn't have the Braves and the Yankees in the post season every single year.
