"I'm sorry that my friend Mark continues to whine about his running the Brewers," Levine told ESPNNewYork.com in a phone interview Tuesday morning. "We play by all the rules and there doesn't seem to be any complaints when teams such as the Brewers receive hundreds of millions of dollars that they get from us in revenue sharing the last few years. Take some of that money that you get from us and use that to sign your players.

If by "hundreds of millions" you mean $175 million over 7 years and "Brewers" you mean the entire league, then maybe he might be close. Never mind that Milwaukee is by far the smallest media market in MLB and Yankees have the richest TV contract.
The Brewers were the 4th biggest spenders in free agency last year so the $30 million they got last year did go back into players.
Now if you want to take a shot at the Pirates I won't say a word.
