What a World Series! The Fall Classic indeed. But based on a quick review of social media,

0:06.0

it seems like a lot of non-Dodgers fans didn't enjoy it. The Cynics say LA bought a championship,

0:11.4

and you know what? They're mostly right, even if the Blue Jays didn't get their players at T.J. Max either.

0:16.8

Either way, complainers need to realize the Avengers would have sucked if Thanos had been a

0:20.5

beta male.

0:21.5

At least baseball knows how to do oligarchy right.

0:24.3

The MLB has never once pretended to care about fairness, and like it or not, that's a closer reflection of our society than the NFL is.

Showy Atani gets $70 million a year from the Dodgers.

1:07.2

goal of parity. You see, the NFL is structured like a game of bingo, where every franchise's number

1:12.3

should eventually be called and would be, if not for a small handful of owners led by

1:17.2

multi-billionaires, Woody Johnson and Jimmy Haslam, who's enduring ineptitude and meddling

1:21.5

and sure their team's number never comes up.

1:24.3

That's not a bad thing, unless you're a fan of one of those teams. Listen, if I had $10 billion
