Guest oldschoolwrestling Report post Posted August 30, 2002 Saw it. But I figured there needed to be one announcing no strike. Didn't mean to step on your toes. Sorry man. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest El Satanico Report post Posted August 30, 2002 Damn...i was hoping that they would strike. That way they would piss the rest of the fans off and not have anyway to pay their lazy overpayed asses. Actually it would of been good to screw the owners out of money as well. Perhaps my total dislike of the game played into my mindset towards the strike. Well either way screw MLB and their overpayed players and the crybaby owners whining about what they got themselves into. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest Strike Force! Report post Posted August 30, 2002 I was sort of hoping for a strike to only to see what the aftermath would be. Fortunately, there will probably be some fan backlash despite the fact that there will be no strike. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Guest alkeiper Report post Posted August 30, 2002 Why does there have to be fan backlash? Their contract expired, they re-negotiated, and agreed to a new contract. Nothing was lost. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Its hard for us to sympathize with billionaire owners who want more and millionaire players who want more. Its greed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
