Why is it that this feels like a bunch of business men playing real world Monopoly?

"I tell you what. I'll trade you Pennsylvania Avenue, My Two Railroads, and the Atlanta Braves for $1000, Marvin Gardens, and a get out of jail free card."

Hopefully they don't land on Luxury Tax any time soon.

Anyways, Bud Selig doesn't have the sack to overturn this deal. He's a spineless creature that caters to George Steinbrenner. The only way this one gets overturned is if the SEC steps in to stop it. And, I'm not talking about the home of Dawgs, Commies, and the Cocks.

As for what happens in the future? Status quo... status quo... You want to keep that "stock option" looking slightly pretty when you trade it in for Park Place. (Damn Monopoly analogies)

$80 million payroll of the aging stars of the past and some young'ins. Sorry Andruw, Mr. Steinbrenner is calling on line 1.
