“The players union just will never get it. People dying, out of work, can’t pay their mortgage, no Senior proms, MLB abbreviated draft to disrupt lifelong dreams, and people need a diversion, and Tony Clark (head of the players’ union) doesn’t want to set a precedent! Full pay for games with no fans! The players know it’s all about revenue—less $, less pay and be glad you have a job. Otherwise, stay home and drive your wife crazy!”—Hall of Fame pitcher Jim Palmer on the player/owner dispute over compensation for an abbreviated 2020 season.

Amazing how so many pundits call for professional sports players to risk their lives to entertain us, there is no cure, no vaccine, no handle on the myriad symptoms, and an expanding list of organs inside your body that are devastated by COVID-19…. Strokes, heart attacks, and kidney failures are all being reported, not to even mention the respiratory distress. And the owners and Commissioner (puppet of the owners), who have always refused to open up their books, expect the players to accept a “50/50 revenue split” without ever opening up the books to player union scrutiny. The players would be fools to risk their families security and health to appease a bunch of corporations and billionaires… Owning a major pro sports franchise is like owning a money printing press, dont shed any tears for these manipulators…
