The plot does thicken with the Worst Commissioner In The History Of Sports™ being accused of fraud -- by an owner! (http://sports.yahoo.com/mlb/news/ap/20020806/ap-metslawsuit.html)

We don't really have any reason to believe either side in this one. The accusation comes from a pretty 'motivated' source, and is timed just a little too co-incidentally to the accounting scandals.

Friggin Doubleday. Just sell your damn share to Wilpon already for cryin out loud. As if it's bad enough the Mets are dropping back in the Wild Card standings, stupid stuff like this comes out. I love baseball!

Let's see-the Dolans offer more than $500 million for the Mets in '99, and 3 years later, after 2 playoff appearances and a World Series appearance, which should increase the value of the franchise, it loses more than $100 million in value?
The Mets are worth about half of the Red Sox?
Doesn't make sense to me, but then I don't think like Bud Selig.

Bud Selig should run for the president of CONCACAF.
