You know, I have no idea who the Pirates are looking for to manage them in 2008. I am a big fan (one of three or four...I know) but who will take over the helm?

SInce I feel interleague play is a crock, could we change the divisions to look like this?

Division 1: Red Sox, Yankees, Mets, Orioles, Nationals

Division 2: Blue Jays, Phillies, Pirates, Indians, Reds

Division 3: Braves, Marlins, Devil Rays, Rangers, Astros

Division 4: Twins, Brewers, Cubs, White Sox, Tigers

Division 5: Rockies, Diamondbacks, Royals, Cardinals, Mariners

Division 6: Padres, Angels, Dodgers, Giants, A's

The teams could then play unbalanced schedules and be able to work it so that they could play most all of there games in their half of the country.

Except for the Division 5, where the teams are a big splotch in three time zones, I think the basics of getting everyone in their best geography is taken care of here.

Before you go howling about the DH...it would go bye bye, with each team adding a roster spot to appease the Players Union, for 26 man rosters (probably another stinking relief pitcher...LOL

Your thoughts and comments, please

I know only there should be only two or three answers to this inquiry. I was wondering if Mark Cuban should buy the Bucs, what would the price be to buy the team, and what would the short and long term implications of such an ownership would be?

The Knicks had one of their worse seasons ever, and the Liberty are not far behind in their own ineptness. Offer me the difference...I do know the answer, but want to see if you astute fans out there know it as well!

Here goes...There are monuments to TWO (2) ex-Cardinals who never played for the Yankees in Monument Park, where monuments to Babe Ruth, Lou Gerhig, etc are located. Could you please tell me who the two ex-Cardinals are and for what on-the-field accomplishment they received this honor?
