Some of you may remember some months back when New York Yankees president told the Brewers GM to 'stop whining' because the Yankees were revenue sharing with the teams with much lesser revenue. You might remember Shots Heard rebuking Randy Levine's condescension; when he pretended that baseball's revenue sharing system put teams on equal ground and thereby justifyied his talking down to other general managers that would have the audacity to complain about that reality.
Randy Levine took his condescension to another level when he taunted the Texas Rangers owner, Chuck Greenberg. Levine told him to keep his team off of 'welfare' (Read the back story here; the sour grapes resulting from both teams failed pursuits of free agent, Cliff Lee.).
Picture: Randy Levine - 'Did I mention that premier seats will be $3,000 a seat? Oh wait, people won't pay that? Okay, half off because I'm a nice guy. It's still $1,500 a seat though. I just don't get why other teams don't charge that and get off of welfare? What are they stupid?' (Satirical Comment)
Shots Heard would give Randy Levine a nickname, but Fat Bastard is already taken.
