(43,244 posts)2. I haven't watched two minutes of a Major League ...
Baseball game since the player's strike of many years ago. World Series included. It wasn't a labor/management thing, It was one bunch of rich guys against another bunch of rich guys.
I need the NFL a lot less than they need me. Fuggem if they decide to totally leave the public airwaves. I'm not chasing after them.

Ever since all games were on networks and then they started putting some games on ESPN. That was the beginning. We had/have ESPN but she's always thinking of other people.

I feel sorry for the fans, though. Going to see a game live and in person is expensive enough, but now you have to pay to see it in your own living room? Yikes.

Why bother in the first place. To each his/her own, not for me.
