For years, critics of the sport have tried to convince us that Major League baseball is really a business.
For years I was in denial. This year I've been convinced. However, the term ``baseball'' should be reserved for the game.
Business ball should be referred to as just that: ``business ball'' or, simply, ``bizball.''
