Great Red Sox World Series Victory Photo (redistributing wealth)


The debate plaguing professional baseball today is about money. Should big-market teams, like the Red Sox and Yankees, be allowed to spend so much more on salaries than other teams can afford? Or should teams' revenue be equally divided to level the playing field (our cliches and puns runneth over). Today, I propose a very inadequate solution. I am posting here a photo I took yesterday at game four of the World Series. I am a Rockies fan who grew up in Boulder. This is a picture of the Red Sox celebrating their four-game sweep. It's not a bad picture for a guy who was weeping while snapping away. Here's my offer. I'll send a copy of this photo to any Red Sox fan who can prove he or she bought a copy of Hooked. This is my way of redistributing wealth from the big market teams to the fans and struggling writers of the small market teams. This is a horrific and naked and unusual marketing ploy. But it's not a bad photo for a guy who was weeping. Pay up Sox fans! mattrichtel@gmail.com.
