Mark T at The Shin Guardian wants relegation for MLB, NBA and NFL

It's not enough for the promotion/relegation zombies to beat on MLS, but now they want the other major American leagues to implement it?Relegation
Pittsburgh Pirates. Kansas City Royal. Cleveland Browns. Detroit Lions. (gulp) New York Knicks. In all the major American sports, cheap owners, poor personnel decisions and general ineptitude has lead to a handful of perennial losers with virtually no motivation to improve due to monopolies of the major sports leagues. Relegation is perhaps the greatest gift soccer could give to other American sports, but also the most unlikely due to finances.
I do wonder what all these promotion/relegation folks are going to say when the European Super League gets formed without it.
