Monday, October 26, 2009Silver Chalice VenturesI've written in the past about Fenway Sports Group and its not-subject-to-revenue-sharing money. The Red Sox are not the only team getting in on the act:The Chicago White Sox are stepping up to the plate in the digital media arena. If David Glass were serious about making the Royals a winner he'd rebrand the pharmacies and sporting goods sections of every Wal-Mart store "Royal-Mart" and give Dayton Moore a billion dollars to play with every year. Well, not the Dayton Moore part. Posted by Craig Calcaterra at 2:21pm Comments

Yeah, there could be literally dozens of dollars in that. Posted 10/26 at 02:43 PM

Bozos Branding Dept. It took about a hundred years, but the avant-garde art movement Dada (“Only a Bad Harvest Can Save Us”) and the Surrealist poets (“Everything Is Analogous To Everything Else”) have finally triumphed. Anyone who’s seen the alleged movie “The Silver Chalice” will know what I mean by that; those who haven’t are in for a harder time, as Paul Newman, the lead actor, (reportedly and very believably) bought every copy of the thing and burned them all. I can only assume that other possibilities (How about Edsel Marketing? Perhaps [insert favorite Windows joke here]?) involved copyright snags. The real question, though, is whether the name was picked by Ozzie Guillen or Kenny Williams. Posted 10/26 at 04:26 PM

“if only David Glass were serious about making the Royals a winner” Now that’s funny. Excuse me while I go beat my head against a wall. Posted 10/26 at 05:09 PM

Craig, your response cracked me up. Dozens of dollars may be an overstatement. Posted 10/26 at 06:20 PM

IF MLB was serious about making the Royals and Pirates competitive… AND they believed money was the reason they weren’t competitiive… They would institute salary caps/floors. Note I don’t say that these things ARE true… Posted 10/26 at 07:38 PM

IF MLB had a cap/floor… WOULD that have stopped Dayton Moore from signing Jose Guillen? Posted 10/26 at 08:25 PM
