Bud Selig's Little Empire

Bud Selig wasn't satisfied with pushing levers to get taxpayers to build his ballpark; nor with shoving the Green Bay Packers out of same.

Now he's the uniform police, too, in an utterly disgraceful way.

Major League Baseball would not let the New York Mets wear NYPD, FDNY and PAPD caps during last night's game against the Chicago Cubs at Citi Field.

And the *cough* excuse?

We just felt all the major leagues are honoring the same way with the American flag on the uniform and the cap. This is a uniformity thing."

Jam it, Bud.

    If Pete Rose isn't in the HOF, there really is no HOF and Bud Selig has a lot to do with it.

    There is "leadership" and then there is "anal retentive rule following". Bud has chosen his position.

    Looks like Bud made Joe Torre fall on the sword.

    The MLB is a private enterprise.

    Private enterprises make their own decisions.

    Next time you require your employees to wear uniforms, I'll suggest they wear something else.
