This Red Sox fan has no skin in this series, but it's stupid people like you that diminish the game with your silly and shallow comment.

I laugh at that since I’m a 67 year old woman who just celebrated her 45th anniversary

Small market teams cannot compete. In the past three years, owner John Middleton spent more than half a billion dollars on just three players - Bryce Harper, Zack Wheeler, and Kyle Schwarber.

The ridiculous high salaries have ruined baseball, at least for most of us. I'm a long-time fan of the Pittsburgh Pirates, and they'll never go to a World Series again. Probably won't even make the playoffs ever again.

It's pathetic what big money has done to baseball. It used to be something that American families enjoyed together, but never again. The cost is prohibitive to attend the games, and it's no fun to watch it on TV. This is why we can't have nice things.
