They showed on ESPN this morning the 2003 team and where those players were playing now. Yankees, Red Sox, Dodgers, Cubs, Mets, Tigers......it's just the Who's Who of big market teams.
Professional baseball sucks.

Which would you rather root for? a team that has a small payroll and trades it players, but wins a world series every 5 years, or a team that has a huge payroll, trades for the best players, but never wins the series?
