So, MLB commissioner Bud Selig is proposing to alter next season's schedule so that the World Series ends in October?

Let me be the first to say, "It's about time!"

The World Series should begin and end in October, not November. The first time baseball stretched into November was in 2001 but there was a very good reason -- the terrorist attacks on the World Trade Center.

Now, however, the season is extended solely to appease ESPN and Fox. That's not right.

I don't care if the season begins a couple of days earlier. It's already cold and rainy and snowy here in the Northeast, so what's a couple of days going to matter.

So, bravo, Bud! Now if you can take away the league that wins the All-Star Game getting home field advantage for the World Series, that would be even better.
