you cannot bring in triple a guys they are in the union also i said this along time ago most of you are just looking at the show,the other guys are covered under the players union,do you think a card carrying aaa player is going to break the line no way he would be done only rick reed was able to pull that off,everyone else that crossed was gone within 2 years all the way couldnot even sell dogs in the gulf coast league

If they strike, I'll come back. But like others, it won't be to the ballpark. Only to the TV and my computer in that seemingly never-ending quest to find the next winner.
Anymore, gambling is 90% of the reason I have any real interest in baseball. Still do love the game, in terms of strategy, etc., but hard to really get into it any more (from a fan's perspective) with all the prices being what they are and I'm totally unsympathetic towards these players and all their so-called "labor issues." As I've mentioned before, these bastards shouldn't even be making as much as they are (this goes for the great players as well as the rookies). Yes they have skill but they are playing a KID'S GAME and I'd bet anything 99% of them couldn't even give you a remotely accurate definition of "REAL WORK!"

Bottom line, though, is I just want them to keep playing ball so we can all win some moola ;) :)

Triple A was just an example ..

its same like the strike in toronto .. even though garbage workers are on strike even part time student workers have to go on strike bcoz they are with the union .. that cannot be helped . fact of life

i really and have heard that nonoe wants a strike,and this is good info the only way they would walk if the owners donot talk,the players that you all are blaming on things you only read in some bs newspaper who gets paid to sale a paper and report half truths do not know whats going on they get a statement and use it how they feel fit to make it sound how they like,kinda like some i know,the players already made a big stride by not setting a date yesterday that was to show the owners lets get to the table cut the bs and get this worked out,way to much finger pointing and most here blame players ,i give up talk to someone in the game and hear it from them its not all cut and dry,even most players said fine to testing for juice as long as the owners can work out a way to keep it in house of baseball,and not try and blow shit out till you have real true results,when you test for juice there are a lot of false reads that come up and like i have said over and over there is no set number on how much testerone one has in the body there is a mid rage from low to high and if its out of wack then it is assumed it is a dirty test well there are some things that will bring that leval up for a few hours or a day boosters drinks such as orange fuel or other power drinks will raise test and so will andro depending what % of purety it is. and these are over the counter things. are guys juiced yes without a doubt,but is it a simple test and cut and dry not even close. its all in reading a number then comparing it to what is to be called the norm and that is the problem the norm.

nothing was ment towards you spock i mean the people in general sorry if it sounds that i was talking down to you remember i am far from the best in writing. and your right no one wins in a strike that last very long in any job.

once again sorry if it made it look like i was putting you down or saying you were wrong was not even thinking in those terms.

have a nice night and another good talked out thread:)
