I'm surprised at how much discussion there has been about the neutral site idea, regardless of how serious it is. It seems like a really bad idea. It's not the like the Super Bowl so that you know it'll be one day around which you can plan travel and fans (those rich enough to go) can adjust their schedules around. The fact that the series could go 4 to 7 games makes planning difficult. If I was a season ticket holder who went to all my team's home games, then they make the World Series and I have to go across country to see them, I'd be upset. The easiest solution to this (if it needs to be solved, and I agree with other posters that there has been an overreaction) would be to shorten the regular season, or at the very least reduce the off days in the post-season. I think all the inter-league games should be dumped, and shorten the season by how ever many games that is (15? 18?, it's not the same for each team?). Of course, the owners (probably the players too given what it could mean for salaries) won't allow for fewer games and hence less revenue.
