not the ideas, I didn't say the ideas, but the comments in here attacking Selig for "opening his mouth" and the comments of the idea being stupid. Its a discussion. You can debate the merits of the plan, but to call anyone stupid for bringing it to the table or for merely discussing it with hopefully an open mind is just plain wrong. Kudos to Selig for listening to radical ideas.

Okay, so you think it's good of him to entertain the idea. But what do you actually think of the idea?

seems a bit outlandish but I honestly haven't looked at it that closely. I don't like the idea of teams moving all the time. I'd grow old with that real quick. The wild card and last realignment however was thought to be the same some time ago, outlandish or at least initially it was.
While these extreme ideas rarely get implemented I think often you find parts of them that are included into future ideas that do get implemented. So in short, keeping an open mind to these radical ideas is positive.
I may have been misleading in my initial post. I have no problem hating the idea or not. I think it rediculous to blast people who recommend or even worse, merely listen to them such as Selig is. Thats where I took issue.

spot on :)
Re: Selig, committee considering radical realignment plan
Floating realignment: STUPID idea...
expanding to 32 teams, with 4 4-team divisions in each league: Awesome (perhaps even perfect) idea, but as was said earlier, not happening in this economy.
Re: Selig, committee considering radical realignment plan
I actually don't want to see the talent watered down any further through expansion.
