The difference between the more traditional sports clubs and Congress is that Congress doesn't really compete against another team.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
Members of Congress have more in common with the people they hobnob in Washington, D.C., than they do with the people they're supposed to represent.
You cannot mix sports with politics.
In my opinion, baseball is as big a business as anything there is. It has to be a business, the way it is conducted.
Sport allows people to come together, but politics divides people.
Sports and politics don't mix.
The aura of soccer is very different from other sports.
The Congress has now become a fairly evenly divided entity.
Baseball may be our national pastime, but the age-old tradition of taking a swing at Congress is a sport with even deeper historical roots in the American experience. Since the founding of our country, citizens from Ben Franklin to David Letterman have made fun of their elected officials.
The economics of baseball are the big problem. The big clubs make a lot of money and the little clubs don't.
Congress is dysfunctional.
