But as usual, I don't expect you of all people to be able to pick up on that kind of distinction.

Furthermore, even if MLB isn't a Fortune 500 company, the amount of annual revenue MLB generates per employee is significantly larger than most Fortune 500 companies. This is why the average player salary is around $3M and it's why Selig can get $14.5M.
Selig shouldn't be commissioner due to a conflict of interest... He owns the Milwaukee Breweres (even though now its in his daughter's name)
