With the union decertifying and this going to the courts the owners have little-to-no leverage. Their only hope is that it gets drug out in the legal system.

A lot of other people other than players are getting screwed by this whole process right now. The only people who benefit from a lockout are the owners, every other employee of the team is out of a job until this is settled.

Baseball, America's passtime, is almost here. I could care less about this news right now

Baseball. Isn't it that one thing people across the country used to care about until around 1994, and now only people in about eight cities do?

No, I think you have that confused with hockey. Baseball is the sport that survives without having to resort to a salary cap, has the highest paid athletes in the country, and plays the longest season

Amen

Haven't watched baseball since the strike back in 94-95

I'll forgive the NFL players because this is a lock out, not a strike.

That is the thing right there. Everyone down to the guy that rips the tickets is going to be sweating it out. There is a massive support system for these guys to go out there and play ball. Sponsorships, advertising, it's all a stake.
