    Agreed on the wild card

    I understand the need for wild cards in the NFL; the season is a short one. But baseball's season is ten times as long. By that time, we pretty much know who the good teams are.

    In an NFL-type scenario, Toronto, Minnesota, Seattlea, Atlanta, St. Louis and Colorado would all be playoff locks. Big deal. We've already seen the ugly side of the wild card when Oakland finished 14 games out. Did anyone really think a team that finished 14 games out might be better than the team that handed them their hats?

    Florida has won the World Series twice, but can't win a division title. Gee, maybe that's something they should aspire to.

    Baseball was damned near perfect before Bud Selig showed up. Can we send him home now? Please?
