Woj, this is a much larger answer than I can provide right now. The highlights include revenue streams being different, no cap and no floor, how the pieces of the pie are divided between owners and players and ownership styles. A whole bunch there. it's also team-building. The Pirates have invested in drafts, which is what the Penguins did. If they pan out, I would hope the invest into those kids -- Priester, Gonzales and Davis -- when the time comes. But it's still a ways off. Again, you're comparing apples to oranges here. The Penguins stunk before they got those guys, too. The Pirates are in the darkest-before-dawn face like the Penguins were pre-Crosby. The issue is they've done this stuff far too much recently, and people are (understandably) tired of seeing bad baseball.
