Bud Selig praying his workers are able to find Bob Mantz' audio of Chase Utley saying the f-word in time.
Major League baseball was unable to stop Steroids in the 90s (or they did not want to). But, they are able to find 16 seconds of audio (I removed the video) www.youtube.com/bobmantzradio where Chase Utley drops the F-Bomb and make me remove it due to infringement.

That's similar to how they can track down one 'mad cow' in British Columbia but we cannot find Osama bin Laden.

Hello,
I understand that MLB had you remove the video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=f1gO45WFQqI
This video was used in an article that I wrote for Bleacher Report found here: http://bleacherreport.com/articles/37912-chase-utley-drops-the-f-bomb-at-the-home-run-derby
Wouldn't that be considered news under MLB guidelines?

I dunno. It feels like the audio was used as part of my article on Bleacher Report. Might just have to send a counter notice to YouTube and see what plays out.

That sucks, but I've seen youtube pull stunts like this all the time. When Chris Berman's infamous "off-air" rant had views skyrocketing it was claiming by ESPN Media within a couple weeks.
Sorry to see that it messed up your article. Before long every corporation/country will have every blade of grass "claimed".
Oh wait..
...that's already happened.
