I with you there. As I get older I have less, and less tolerance for either side, and will have even less if there is any disruption in the season, which is looking more, and more like that will happen.
-
No it’s not, but you don’t have to pay, and pay big money to watch her in person, or on TV.
-
This is why I have no sympathy for either side. A player that turns down a $350M contract, and an owner who offered that much in the first place.
-
100% agree on adding more teams.
-
When I went to my first game in Fenway in 1965 the highest priced ticket was $3, which was a Box Seat.
-
I’m not saying it should, but it’s not getting anymore money from me either in person, or for TV. Like I said in the big scheme of things its not a necessity.
-
Yes, but this is not a necessity.
-
On one hand I say the players are the game, but on the other hand I say if the players don’t like what they get paid let them find another job if they think they can do better. Either way I have no sympathy for either side.
-
I’m very well aware of that, but that’s why I said both sides don’t deserve anymore money.
-
And ticket prices will continue to rise no matter what the outcome.
-
I wonder what Jeter thinks about all of this since he’s gone from player to ownership. Neither owners, or players deserve to get anymore money.
-
If players don’t like what they are getting paid then let them find another job.
-
Maybe they should switch sides for awhile. The owners could be the players, and the players could be the owners, and see how that works out, and then be locked in a room till this thing gets settled.

Mookie didn’t get to FA, because the Sox didn’t want to let him walk out the door, and get nothing for him. Knowing in my opinion that the Sox were not going to get Mookie to sign a new contract I would have traded Mookie after 2018, and possibly got more for him like some pitching.
-
And just when you think you know the answers they change the questions.
-
Pretty much everything on here is nothing, but speculation, and so is all these offers that was so called reported. I’m waiting now for the next big speculation offer to either Bogey, or Raffy.
-
This is exactly what I meant that it appeased some fans.
-
It appeased some fans.
-
The Red Sox knew he wouldn’t sign for $300M, and Mookie knew the Sox weren’t going any higher, so call it what you want, but either way Mookie was getting out of Boston, and did,
-
They did offer Betts $300M, but they already knew he wasn’t going to take it, so not really a legit offer.
-
Eddie Bressoud was the 1st Red Sox SS I can remember. Not a bad SS for a sucky Red Sox team in the early 60’s.
-
Valentin moved to 3rd for some guy named Nomar.
-
Or not at all like 67.
-
The pitching was also better back in the 60’s, 70’s, and 80’s.
-
I don’t think Cleveland gave up 2 HR’s to Perez in game 7. Lee gave up three runs in a 4-3 game.
