Classic Comical

Isn't this just classic Comical:

Q: Why doesn't Bob Selig regulate how much money the Yankees, the Braves and the Cubs get from the media? That way all the teams have the same kind of money to invest in players as opposed to having the same 3 teams always spending enormous amounts of money to get all the good players.

Gilbert in Houston

A: Gilbert, I'm sure you mean Bud Selig. It's call free enterprise.

Jose de Jesus Ortiz calls out a guy for his error, and makes an error in his response.

I love the consistency of that newspaper.

I'm not sure whether you're referring to the grammatical error, or to the factual error. "Free enterprise" and major league baseball do not belong in the same sentence (or sentence fragment). Has this guy heard of the anti-trust exemption, or revenue sharing, or collective bargaining. You can reasonably argue the merits of any of these things, but you can't call them "free enterprise."
