2 215 Boogaman Boogaman^78 Re: ARod Deal Good For Baseball???????? 2/25/04, 6:47pm You know in the early 80's I read an article about Japanese baseball as I had a nephew playing in the Japanese leagues and I liked to follow his progress. I read an article of how big baseball was over there and how the Giants(?) was suppossed to win every year and it was like a disgrace to beat them. I don't know the truth of this but it seems as if American Baseball is beginning to follow suit and without a competetive balance baseball has become a farce. It is a disgrace for the Yankees to not win anymore and the state of baseball today is a sham and a shame. [Boogaman from Panama City Beach/Florida] Replies:
