All damned summer apparently!

"We have a payroll disparity problem." Well guess what Rob, y'all are about to have a revenue problem with ZERO butts in seats and ZERO eyes on the tv watching your product.

Don't forget who's choosing to cancel games to line their already platinum-stuffed pockets.

And let the spin begin. 

Vince McMahon should come up with a new league.  And then hire all of the players LOL

I hope players actually take jobs oversees (Like what Bryce Harper alluded to).. It would be embarrassing for the league.

Let me know when Manfred will be getting hit with a folding chair and I will tune in.

I really don't want to hear about what good businessmen the owners are ever again.

Very cool that my escape of choice is suffering from identical institutional rot has everything else.

Manfred is absolute scum

This sport is already so far behind the times it's not funny. Having a clown as commissioner isn't helping. 

I wonder if the union will still say no expanded playoffs in 2022 in their statement.

How are you going to stand up there and laugh when you are announcing that games are cancelled?

They better.

Well it is also official.  I won't be paying for a ticket or merchandise this year.

I’m seriously thinking of printing t-shirts that say, “Fuck Manfried” on them.

Like this message if you would buy one.

I feel the same.  I have to get my fix from somewhere.

I'll be the creepy old man at the high school games, enjoying the game and not knowing anyone.

Right, while a War situation is escalating  in that hemisphere.

It's a lazy assumption based on no actual evidence, other than anecdotal connections.  If his name was actually out there, or if the Sox status actually fit into the group of owners that is supposed to be leading this charge, that is one thing, but until then, eh.

 

I didn't think it was Jerry until Bob came out and started spewing ownership propaganda. Then I remembered who is usually the mouthpiece for Sox ownership in the offseason.
