>Be careful to not become a "fan" of any one team. Surely they will move to another city. Who needs fans? It is a game that is all about making money. Very unlike 35 years ago.
One of the many things baseball today has in common with baseball 35 years ago is the number of people saying it's much worse than it was 35 years ago.
35 years ago people were making the same comments about how hard they played the game 35 years ago compared to now.
35 years ago people were making the same comments about how escalating salaries were ruining the game because 35 years ago they played for the love of the game rather than the money.
http://users.commkey.net/fussichen/dtl003.htm35 years ago people were commenting about how the teams kept moving from one city to another. For example, between 1965 and 1972
1. The KC A's move to Oakland (1968)
2. The Milwaukee Braves move to Atlanta (1966)
3. The Washington Senators become the Texas Rangers. (1969) Remember, these were not the original Senators but an expansion team created when the original Senators became the Minnesota Twins in 1961
You can go back to the 50's and find
1. The Brooklyn Dodgers moving to Los Angeles
2. The NY Giants moving to SF
3. The St. Louis Browns moving to Baltimore
4. The Boston Braves moving to Milwaukee
5. The Philly A's moving to KC
Plus ca change, plus c'est la meme chose
