I’m still a baseball fan, but screw the greedy owners and players who caused that stupid strike.

As a greedy capitalist myself, I have a problem with the fans who whine that “the players make too much money” and “I would play for free”.

The players will stop making all that money when the millions of fans stop paying $100/ticket and $20 for parking and $90 for hats, beer, hot dogs. When nobody watches the TV networks won’t pay to televise the games.

As long as there IS a market demand and the leagues make billions, the players will get paid millions.
