First the pandemic, then the riots, and now this. Horrible!!

I am a capitalist and free enterprise supporter. However the greed of these players driven by lawyers, agents and bean counters sickens me. I realize not every players makes millions and the owners make hefty profits in a lot of markets. Most of these prima donna athletes have been spoiled their whole lives and are self centered jerks. I know three former players (2 baseball, 1 NFL) on a personal level and both are total ass wipes and failures in the real world. Baseball is suppose to be America's game full of role models for children not a bunch of children who are bad role models.
 
Assuming baseball owners and players actually come to an agreement and start playing this year, it looks like the National League will get the DH. I'm not a fan. :mad:

This country is headed for a disaster of biblical proportions.

What do you mean, "biblical"?

What he means is Old Testament, Mr. Mayor, real wrath of God type stuff.

Fire and brimstone coming down from the skies! Rivers and seas boiling!
Forty years of darkness! Earthquakes, volcanoes...
The dead rising from the grave!
Human sacrifice, dogs and cats living together... mass hysteria!
 
I've always known we can survive without sports. I stay way too busy to follow sports, so it's never been an important thing in my life. Pro sports is just big business, business that doesn't actually produce or manufacture anything.

Better to spend my money on speakers. :D

And everyone already knows Alabama will win the National Championship so no reason to even play.
 
I don't mind the DH rule at all. How many pitchers were great batters? The purpose of the DH rule in the AL was to protect the pitcher. Back in the day, it wasn't uncommon for the pitcher of the other team to throw a "wild" pitch at the opposing pitcher at the plate.
 
Why can’t we just have murder hornets? They would would make even the biggest fat arse run fast and that would make for some good television too.
 
Disagree....sports produces entertainment much like the TV, movie, and music industries.
Which falls under services. It doesn't produce a product to speak of.

Services will always be a part of our economy, but we have a problem in this country of having too many services in relation to manufacturing. We desperately need to bring manufacturing back, and I think it's very possible to do so if the government will make it easier to do business here.

Well,,, there are the consumables, balls, bats, gloves, uniforms, equipment and steroids!
 
And overpriced beer, cracker jacks, and hotdogs
You said "Cracker"!! You said "Cracker"!! Oooo I'm telling!!
Cracker Jack Changes Name To More Politically Correct Caucasian Jack

PLANO, TX—When ballparks finally open again, those standing for the traditional seventh-inning stretch will be singing some different lyrics to "Take Me Out to the Ballgame."


After over 100 years of selling its caramel popcorn snack under the name Cracker Jack, Frito-Lay announced today that it would be rebranded as the less offensive "Caucasian Jack."

"We are very sorry to all the crack---er, I mean, Caucasians we have hurt over the years," said a spokesperson. "Cracker is an offensive stereotype, and we must make sure that all foods and snack products are culturally sensitive. Think about all the white people who have had to suffer in silence as tens of thousands of baseball fans sang out the hurtful lyrics 'Buy me some peanuts and Cracker Jacks.'"

"No more. The bigotry stops today."

The move was applauded by hurt white people, though they are still criticizing Frito-Lay for how pale and pasty-white the Cracker Jack guy is on the logo.
