Steve Fainaru continues his series on the monopoly that is baseball, including Bud Selig’s all powerful role in the game and public financing of stadiums. Today’s article includes quotes from Senator Herb Kohl (D-Wis) regarding a potential baseball team in Washington, DC (nice to see the Senator spending time on important issues….)
I continue to be amazed that it took a newspaper 700 miles from Wisconsin, The Washington Post, to write this series on the fleecing of taxpayers. Perhaps former Governor Tommy Thompson helped out – he’s quoted in the articles.
