Selig's brewers benefit from revenue sharing. Fact? Yes.

Selig has been pushing revenue sharing for the last 20 years. Fact? Yes.

Revenue sharing has been a hot topic in baseball and there has been a big fight over the years. Fact? Yes.

So does Selig have any Agenda? LOL. No, I guess not.

Bud Selig sold his interest of the brewers 5 years ago

The "arcitcle" that you googled was from 2006. The numbers were from the preceeding years. Try again.

There is no doubt that the NFL has been a much better run organization than Major league baseball over the last 40 years. There is also little question that football's moves including revenue sharing, tv contracts and overall marketing has been far better than the MLB. I am not in any way saying that TV alone set football apart.

However, I don't think the rev sharing was the primary force as I thought you had said. If I misread that, then this is all moot.

Oct of 2007 isn't 2006. And why would it matter anyway?

Because the question is what reason would he have to pump up the numbers.

The rev sharing in baseball was a very heated topic and will be Selig's legacy. Of course its going to be presented in the best light possible. Its kind of like the numbers on the economy.

The NFL doesn't publish their total rev numbers and with a new CBA looming the last thing those owners want to show is how much they are taking in.

The point is that baseball isn't close to the net rev the NFL is taking in and it really isn't debatable.
