Surprised you have any!

This cracked me up.

He’s right

He’s right

Somewhat.

Ironically, if you're going by "teams represented in the playoffs" the "NFL parity league" is actually lower than baseball.

Why? Because you can't spend your way out of bad decisions is my guess.

In case others don't know, a big reason the Dodgers are able to spend what they do is because of their TV deal. They get to keep a much larger % of their deal than other teams. Has to do with a circa 2012 deal they struck with the MLB during the divorce of the McCourt's, who were the sole owners of the franchise.

Since the above, the Dodgers have won the West every season but one. It's not a coincidence...

lmfao @Kaladin, I was typing it out when you posted. 👊

it’s a crazy carve out and it blows my mind that they’re allowed to do it

IIRC, it's over in 2032. I think the deal was for 20 years. Still, ridiculous advantage for LA.

I wonder if allowing the dodgers to have this carve out is actually more beneficial for the MLB, financially

One juggernaut franchise producing more revenue than a handful of small market team

Don’t know who these guys are but this seems to be the discussion that everyone is having with regard to the MLB
