This Bud's For You
Bud Selig f'd up the World Series by letting them play last night, and now he has postponed tonight's game and not told them what they are doing with the travel day. Fans had to sit in miserable conditions because Selig has no respect for the game, all he cares about is TV $. Here's more from philly.com:
The game never should have been permitted to start, and everybody with access to weather radar - read, everybody - knew that. This big green blob was coming north and it wasn't stopping. That commissioner Bud Selig said that three different weather services gave him optimistic reports has made him and his sport look silly.
There are 45,000 wet, exhausted, frustrated people who sat outside in this mess and knew that it was a farce. They came in the hope of glory. What they got was abused. This should not have started - should not.

Not here to defend Selig at all, but did he really have a choice??
Why wouldn't he have had a choice? Simply look at the weather and say, this is too risky, let's postpone the game until the weather clears. After all, he says they can wait until Thanksgiving if they need to, right? So, why try to force that game when they had the ability to wait? The reason is network TV pressure.
