MotherJones.com, named after a radical Socialist.

Mother Jones focuses heavily on the evils of capitalism and the alleged desirability of government control over business. On a global level, the magazine reserves its harshest condemnations for the U.S. and Israel, and is staunchly supportive of Marxist regimes like Fidel Castro's Cuba.

Interesting info on Mother Jones. What's your source on that?

And is USA today also a Marxist publication in your view?

And are you not aware that MILB players are professionals (IOW their play is how they earn their living) and that HS and college students are amateurs?

(not saying I know enough about MILB compensation to have an opinion on what if anything needs to be done about it.)
