MLB also doesn't deserve the antitrust exemption it has as a pure accident of judicial history, unlike all other sports leagues. (The exemption was subsequently narrowed by Congress but not eliminated, which MLB effectively argues means they implicitly endorsed the remaining exemption and that any change would need to come from Congress.
