I think just when we've all given up, they'll pull something together.
-
To try to get you to stop expressing your opinion was not my goal, I promise. Just trying to point out the political aspects.
-
I know, but the entertainment factor is why the thing exists in the first place. It's our need for entertainment that underlies all the billions.
-
Sounds familiar, doesn't it? Republicans and Democrats using Covid-19 for other purposes.
-
I don't see a big difference between this and some of the battles between management and labor in other businesses.
-
Minimal? You need to refresh yourself on the meaning of 'stakeholder'. Our stake is huge. We're the customers, who collectively fund the whole damn thing...
-
I don't think that should be the case. But the situation with MLB players and owners rises to the level of a political issue, because it's a conflict of power and money that a lot of people have a stake in.
-
The part about 'the players should shut up' is a little on the political side.
-
Kimmi, this issue is where you get to show your political and combative side - fun, isn't it?
-
That's weird.

FWIW, Shaughnessy thinks Cora will be the Red Sox manager in 2021.
-
But there was nothing in the least disrespectful toward the fans in his comments. He wasn't really trying to get in a war, I don't think.
-
I think Pillar is responding to all the people who are bashing players on the basis of 'making millions to play a kid's game'. If those people are entitled to rant that way on social media, Pillar is entitled to respond.
-
Jerry Maguire was 'Show me the money.' 'Follow the money' was from All the President's Men.
-
I think you're being a little rough on Pillar. I think he has some valid points. Pillar has never had anything more than a one-year contract. Guys like him have zero job security. Now he's 31 years old. Yes, he's accumulated gross salaries of about $11 million in his career - prior to whatever he gets paid for this year. But this could be it for him. I think part of his point is that being a professional baseball player is not a lucrative, easy life for the majority.

Any one who makes that argument in seriousness deserves a few good whacks in the head.
-
But none of us could hit major league pitching, and hopefully we realize that.
-
Well said.

Listened To Pedey on WEEI annmnnnnnd

Stipulated. -
Kobe or Magic.

I don't know if this is a good argument or not, frankly. But it's all just in fun, right? I would take Michael Jordan in a one-on-one game against Wilt. And I would take 5 Michaels in a game against 5 Wilts.
-
Bingo that.
-
And don't forget about the other big asset and biggest suffering party - the customers.
-
See you tomorrow.

Manfred specifically excluded players from the report (except one mention of Beltran) and exempted them from penalties.
