7. Wasn't it like this before Selig took over?
Meaning there was no "shot clock" and games took as long as necessary. I also want to say there was no drug testing or salary cap when Selig took over so those things weren't Selig creations either. Yet he gets all the heat and I'm sure there were players taking steroids in the 80's. If it's the playoff format, well I like the playoff formant the way it is. I will concede the All*Star game matters idea is rather silly but it is the most interesting All*Star game in all of professional sports and baseball is ranks towards the last to me in interest level of the major professional sports leagues as well as the 2 most popular NCAA sports. He's also made changes like bringing in drug testing(that is the strictest of all US professional leagues) that wasn't in place when he took over. I'm open minded to this so feel free to convince me otherwise.
