SSNN: Baseball owners want to use instant replay to review Selig hiring

As the professional baseball owners gather to consider instant replay, SSNN has learned that many of the owners are interested in using the technology to take another look at the hiring of Commissioner Bud Selig over a decade ago.

“I think a lot of us would like to take another quick look at that call,” said Drayton McLane, owner of the Houston Astros. “You know, just to make sure we didn’t miss anything the first time through. Instant replay is about getting it right, no?”

It’s satire, don’t get too excited.

Is there any way the last decade has been bad for owners? Sure, players don't play for free and owners are still not allowed to idolize Hitler, but otherwise?
