I wasn't suprised to hear Bud selig was retained through 2012 but  still find it odd how a man can keep his job after all the bad publicity MLB has gone through under his watch.I guess because he's a former owner himself and the owners have always considered him one of their own.Where else does a CEO get a raise and the full endorsement after all the negativity that's swirled around Bud Selig?The first bad thing was the owners endorsing one of their own which was a glaring conflict of interest.Selig justified this by relinquishing his team to his daughter which basicly still gave him control.The strike in 94,ignoring the steroid contoversy until it got totally out of control.MLB. In spite of all this,MLB has continued to grow and I guess as long as the owners get richer  he's their man! Not bad work for a man who got a raise from his $14 mil. a year salary!
