Oh! I have slipped the surly bonds of Earth
And danced the skies on laughter-silvered wings;......
And, while with silent, lifting mind I’ve trod
The high untrespassed sanctity of space,
Put out my hand, and touched the face of God.
High Flight

I pretty much agree. At a time when baseball could be something that helps bring at least a sense or normal to this country, the players and owners basically throw it all away because they can’t check their egos. A lot of fans left and didn’t come back after the 1994-95 strike. It’s going by to be worse this time.

If there is a 2021 season. Remember the CBA is set to expire.
Baseball is going to take a huge PR hit if there is no season. Unlike after 94-95, there is no Cal Ripken or a McGwire/Sosa home run record chase to save them. More fans will walk away and never return. But it’s quite obvious Manfred and Clark could not care less

Baseball was always in the toughest situation of being the first sport looking to completely start their season in the COVID era, but they are really screwing it up. NHL and NBA come out looking like saviors because they’re working on ways to finish up their seasons and hold postseasons, even though both will most likely postpone the start of their next season until December or even January. NFL still has a lot of time before their season has to think of starting. MLB was in the lose lose situation but found a way to lose horribly.
Has there EVER been a statement and question a certain someone should absolutely never have made and asked publicly more than...
Kinda pathetic to see yourself as a message board knight in shining armor. How impotent does someone have to be in real life to resort to playing hero on a message board?
I have a friend with inside info that says we're definitely playing. He's heard 82 or a little under. He is working on something for one of the more famous teams.
Don't pay too much attention to the tweets. Too much going on behind the scenes and they are used as leverage.
If there is no season, Manfred and Clark should immediately be fired and strung out to dry.
With not just Covid-19, but all of the other things we face right now as a nation, we need baseball.
Get off my lawn!
