I get that. But "any legal claim against the league" is absurd. May as well ask for a blank check. Yeah, we all know the first, reasonable scenario is not the one being mentioned.

People are allowed to change their opinion as they get new info. Hes right that the owners will propose the season they wanted all along but they can easily fluff up the dates. Add an extra day off in season, say it take 4 weeks for spring training, etc, etc. plus, if this really gets litigated, theres no baseball anyway this year. MLBs only going to "lose" this if the players lose as well... meaning no season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
candyman93 Posted June 15, 2020 Share Posted June 15, 2020 I’m not sure if possible, but ALL pro sports leagues need to make their money off of TV revenue like the NFL. Is that possible? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thelonebillsfan Posted June 15, 2020 Share Posted June 15, 2020 Who can reasonably still hold the players at fault at this point lmao. They said "set the games, lets play" and the owners and commissioner said no. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TLO Posted June 16, 2020 Share Posted June 16, 2020 “Owners deserve more for taking all the risk” *risk shows up “well you can’t expect the owners to take such a big financial hit” as someone who generally can see both sides of the coin on these types of issues, the owners and Manfred can go to hell.

MWil23 Posted June 16, 2020 Share Posted June 16, 2020 Owners: We are taking a HUGE loss/not making much money every single year Players: Open your books and show us/prove it Owners: No, we won't do that, just trust us. Manfred: I'm a complete joke Players: We won't be embarrassed again after 2016 Fans: This isn't a negotiation year, we're in the middle of a worldwide pandemic, and... Players: WE WON'T BE EMBARRASSED AGAIN AFTER 2016!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Both Players and Owners: We don't care that unemployment in this country is at 40 million people and this isn't a negotiation year, but rather a pandemic exception. The WNBA and MLS have both figured out their seasons, as have other European and Asian leagues all over the world, but we're going to take a giant dump all over baseball.
