Great parade today at Canyon of Heroes, NYC.

In football, because of the salary cap, players are being cut all the time for financial reasons, not for lack of performance. That's a flawed system.
In the 2000s how many different NBA teams have won the title? Lakers, Spurs, Pistons, Heat and Celtics. 5 teams. MLB, without a salary cap, has had 8 different teams win the World Series since 2000. Why do you want a salary cap? Just because the Yankees won?

So? Big fucking deal! The fact that something is anti-capitalistic doesn't make it bad. Look at the past year. If anything it has proven that CAPITALISM SUCKS!!

A salary cap helps ensure a level playing field and something called COMPETITION. Capitalism has no interest in competition- it's purpose is to amass as much power and wealth as possible- resulting in a MONOPOLY.

No it isn't. Players are cut when their performance does not equal their compensation.

At least they had the courtesy to put up nice flat screens so people sitting there can watch the play down the first base line and right field.
