Kent Ninomiya - Bud is back! The big question around the baseball world is whether that's a good thing. MLB Commissioner Bud Selig just extended his contract another three years. He will be with us through 2012. This is somewhat unexpected. Selig hinted that it was time for him to retire. It is certainly an interesting time in baseball. It's enjoying unprecidented financial success while under fire for steroid allegations. So is Selig good or bad for baseball. I think he is a valueable asset. Baseball is going through its most dramatic change since integration. Its biggest stars are its biggest liability. Strange times we live in. Bud is responsible for the steroid controversy coming to the surface. He is not trying to sweep it under the rug. He encouraged the Mitchell report, accepts partial responsibility and vows to clean things up. He is not responsible for steroids. He is doing something about it. Baseball has also exploded economically in his tenure. MLB grossed more than 6 billion dollars last season. They set an attendance record of nearly 80 million. Both are records. Selig promises to expand the league even more, bringing more baseball to more regions of the country. If you are a baseball fan, Bud is a stud not a dud. Kent Ninomiya

Could not agree more. He is not the most photogenic person or smooth talker, but his advancements far out-weigh any negatives. When history looks back at his accomplishments, he might finally get all of the recognition he deserves. Way to shed some light his way.
