Good luck trying to buy a World Series
There are some things that can be bought. A space flight. The chance to be cryogenically frozen. Or maybe just some of the simpler things, like a 12-cylinder Ferrari Testarossa, beachfront property in Turks and Caicos or one of the socks Curt...

Ned Colletti is writing a different story these days
GLENDALE, Ariz. -- There is new spring in Ned Colletti's step these days, a brighter glint in his eye. Both are traceable to the same thing: Frank McCourt is no longer even a distant speck in the Dodgers' rearview mirror. Colletti, Dodgers general...

Tom Lasorda, 85 years young, is still selling baseball, and Dodgers
Now that we can sweep the college football season away, much like Alabama did to Notre Dame, it is time to set our sporting sights forward. There is the NBA, college basketball, even a hockey-light season. Or is that a light hockey season? Nor...

It starts at the top. I look at the Angels, all that talent, a $159-million payroll, and they can't finish ahead of the $55-million Athletics from Oakland? And that's with baseball offering an extra wild card this season to make up for a slow start....

Padres ownership situation a mess
Forget the Mets' financing troubles attached to the Fred Wilpon/Bernie Madoff connection. Look past the Red Sox's franchise-reshaping, where these days only the uniforms seem unchanged, and the slow-moving sale of the Dodgers.
