People love to hate Bud. Somehow, someway he was supposed to establish an elaborate a drug-testing program and institute a salary cap. Yet, they forget to mention the Wild Card, playoff expansion, record attendance, interleague play and the goodwill/excitement of the 1998 HR chase. Here are some of the Bud-related responses from another board I frequent: -Integral to pretty much ensuring both the Yankees and Red Sox make the playoffs every year, yeah. Good riddance to Bud Lite. -I think that baseball will be a lot better without him involved. Except for adding a wild card in the playoffs and creating interleague play, in my opinion I think he was the worst commissioner in all of sports. -Bud's Weak Spot is not Standing up enough to the Owners (Salary Cap, Territorial Scalebacks, etc.) Maybe a new commish can change that. -Bud "Light" (Kenesaw Molehill) Selig has failed at everything he has touched. He will not be missed. Frustrating. I know we have a wee bit of bias as Brewer fans, but to rate him below Gary Bettmann or David Stern is wrong, imo. Some people hate Bud just because it's fashionable to do so.
