How awesome are the Rockies? Very very.

$233k goes right to Coolbaugh's widow. That's class. On a sidenote, had the Rockies won the World Series, Tulowitzki could have almost doubled his 2007 salary with the money the winners got.
Here's another sidenote, suppose hypothetically that the MLB had been charging a $2 'World Series Winners Pool' fee on top of every single ticket sold this season (75 million+), and so essentially you'd see the winning team's share for winning the World Series worth more than $150 million (players share would be 10 times more from $300k to $3M). I'm wondering what the effect would be on baseball as a whole.
If you think about it, it might make WS winning teams more motivated to stick together (instead of splitting up due to demanding more money) and you could finally see the return of baseball dynasties due to teams having quality players sticking together because now there's a monetary reason for them to stick together as team.
To make it fair for the opposing WS team, you could add $1 to that 'World Series Winners' fee so that they'll be motivated to stick together as well.
Some cheap-skate fans, though, will not like the idea of paying up $3 extra for something labelled as 'World Series Winners Pool' thing; because of this MLB should enlist the help of Republican Party marketers (who came up with such things as 'War on Terror' instead of 'Empire America', 'Death Tax' instead of 'Estate Tax', and 'Climate Change' instead of 'Global Warming') to come up with a name for the fee. Perhaps it could be the 'Make Baseball Better for America' fee or 'Keep Baseball in America' fee or 'No terrorists at my baseball game, please' fee.
What would you call the fee?
