The Strasberg situation is what's making pro sports worse now than it was 20 years ago, much less the earlier periods. I understand why. Lots of money on the line. But what the hell do you play the games for? Obviously the money these days. Not championships.
Ridiculous statement.
For a pitcher of his quality, Strasburg is making peanuts.
If it was money that was the main point they would ride him into the ground. Right or wrong the Nats obviously want to win long-term, rather than risk blowing out this guys arm in the playoffs with a less than stellar run support

You think when they pay him they will be losing money on the deal? No
He is right, if it was about winning stras would be playing
It's about money. Keeping their cash cow healthy for years to come to keep the jersey sales up and the attendance up
It's not about winning, because if it were they would have taken this chance now. It's about not losing the superstar Because the front office knows they can stay very profitable and respectable and keep their jobs without actually selling out for the title
