I hope Steinbrener chokes on his own foot....

Yet another reason to see money does not buy class.

On the other hand, borrowing an idea from current events.

How about merit based pay. If you do not win, you do not get paid. If you lose then you forfiet pay due since after the last win. I'd bet it would put a fire under any teams performance.
DEFINITION OF A VETERAN
A Veteran - whether active duty, retired, national guard or reserve - is someone who, at one point in their life, wrote a check made payable to "The United States of America", for an amount of "up to and including my life."

True Mav, but what would happen if say you played for a team like the Cubs or the Rockies....

Those guys, especially the latter, would be eligible for food stamps!   :D

Pay everybody a good base salary. Then each game has a big pot split amongst the winners with starters getting the lion's share of the bucks.

If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude than the animated contest of freedom, go from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains sit lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen!
