THE GAME'S THE THING: Brad Zellar, writing in the Minneapolis alternate weekly City Pages, says what I've been saying since at least the '94 strike: regardless of all the crap that happens off the field in regards to labor relations, it's the game that's really most important, and the combined efforts of Bud Selig and Don Fehr can't change that. And it certainly doesn't hurt when your hometown, small market team is 12 games over .500 and 10 games ahead of their nearest rival.
