Get you Question ready for Bud Selig to Anwser on Monday in his Town Hall Meeting

mgom27 · 07-07-2007, 08:03 PM

Won't be able to watch on MLB.com because will be at work when it's happening. So will have to catch up when get Home by going to MLB.com to see the results.
It should be shown Live on ESPN intill the MLB Channel Premiers.
You should be able to submit your Questions early if your not close to the Internet on Monday at that time.
My Questions would be
When will Radical Realignment happen?
How about Rotate the All-Star Game and World Series ever year meaning one year ESPN can host it one year TBS on year FOX and one year MLBTV Channel like the Super Bowl is?
How about the DH and Pitcher in the same Linuep so them Interleague Play can be all year round?
How about Spring Training Sites in Mexico,California and Hawaii?
How about renaming the All-Star Game to World verus USA?
How about Old Timers Game at All-Star Weekend?
How about expanding Rosters be like 50 in Out of the Park Baseball?
How about allowing Trades at the Draft and letting ESPN show the Hole Draft?
Why haven't you looked at Orlando or New Orleans or Hawaii as a place for a MLB team?

"Mr. Selig, would you please get mgom27 to tell us what his job is? Please?"

He obviously works at a think tank

If these are the type of questions that are coming out of it, the tank is in need of a thorough cleaning.

Mr. Selig are you glad that you'll never be known as the worst commishioner of sports in America thanks to Gary Bettman?

mgom27 · 07-09-2007, 07:43 PM

http://mlb.mlb.com/news/article.jsp?...2007&fext=.jsp but none of my Questions were asked and if I were their I would have asked them.
The Media is the people that ask him Questions.
ESPN Doesn't even have a set for their Baseball Tonight crew in AT&T Park they have to stay back in Bristol and they are usly live at where the All-Star Game is being played.
Even baseball Tonight can't be on when a World Series Game is over.
FSN should carry Baseball Games not TBS because the Braves are a staple on their.
TNT can carry Baseball Games like it carrys Basketball games Friday or Saturday night doubleheaders with Chip Carry calling one game and Kevin Harlan or somebody another like Ernie Johnson because he won't be need in the Studio because TBS already has somebody in the Baseball Studio's doing Braves Games.
Now that TNT want's to carry more Sports it can start it's own Sports channel to up against ESPN.

Bump

There is pearls of wisdom buried in here. He is a sports savant....make a sequel Beautiful Minds 2..get Jennifer Connolly to come back..film it in KC or P Rico and show filming on ESPN..

Alright, I can usually understand mgom somewhat, but what is he talking about this time?

I really like renaming the ASG to World verus USA. That makes complete sense to me.

I'm not sure where All-Star Weekend is, but it does sound like a great place for an Old Timers Game.

The DH and pitcher both hitting in the same lineup is the best mgom suggestion ever.

I've always wanted to see the Hole Draft.

Actually, that is a very good idea. Strictly invitational, MLB picks up the travel expenses. Becomes a showcase for world class baseball.

Another good idea. Old timers from all teams, from all time. Living is required, however.

Uh, no. The winning streak stops here. Choose one or the other; it's not baseball otherwise. Some may be already saying that about the DH itself.

I've always wanted to see the Hole Draft.
No comment. Um, well . . . no. No comment.

mgom27 · 10-24-2007, 11:28 AM

At least the NFL Draft now starts at 3pm and Pro Bowl be played at the Site of the Super Bowl.
Hockey does Oldtimers of the city the All-Star Game is in against other Oldtimers.
Move the Draft to the Offseason then Trades can happen in it.
Let Teams pick if they want to use the DH in the Game or not.
If Espn was carrying the World Series they would have been probley Live at Fenway Park on Monday not starting today. Even Fox Studio crew should have been their Live on Sunday then they would already be their for the World Series.
Expand the Postseason Rosters to maybe like to 30.

3) Agree that trades should happen but either players would be drafted the winter before they are eligible to sign which would be bad because there would be even more incomplete scouting; or, players would waste half a year of baseball waiting to get drafted. Dont agree.

4) Sure. Why not?

6) Im undecided. It would likely slow the game further with all the pitching changes and it would give the WS the appearance of an exhibition.

This is exactly the sort of thing that Bud Selig should be in charge of deciding.
