george was good for the game on whole , were the problems , yes , but the total package was a positive

What have I said that wasn't true?

Let me ask you a question. If George didn't buy the yankees do you think baseball would be in worse shape? Since I already know your answer, Why?

You didnt answer the question. What if CBS sold to a different, less bombastic owner? Say they sold to John henry (the red sox owner not the horse)?

Yeah those Yankee/Royal and Yankee/Indian games are must see tv.

when did the small teams have a chance over the yankees , dodgers etc etc in any given era of baseball ??? the orioles and red sox beat up on the yanks in the 60's and early 70's , that was it

There were no small market teams for much of that period.
