*DAMN R6 Forum

 Just want to get everyones thoughts on the potential MLB Strike, personaly, at first I thought that it was very unlikely, but considering how near it is at this point, I think that there is a very good chance of it. Anyone who hasn't heard much about this, I don't feel like posting what all is going on, you can all find more information at: www.mlb.com/. Normaly, I am pretty "Anti owners" in terms on some of the things that the owners stand for on issues, but on this, I'd have to agree with them.

Do you think that there will be a work stopage ( Strike )?

I think there will be a strike, but im not really a base ball fan. Im more into the full contact sports. butt i use to play base ball so i know the game. but yes i think there will be a strike.

bah.. i hope there's no stike.. i've got tickets for a game two weeks after the strike would begin. damned rich bastards. they suck.

This would have been an excellent topic to make a poll on.

The players are too damn greedy and should be lined up outback and shot. I hope there is no strike because I want to hold it over Ace's head that the Dodgers made the playoffs and the Giants blow.

This birthday sucks. First, it's on the first day of school, and if that's not bad enough, it's the last day that any games will be played. (yes the strike is going to happen)

Baseball Players are idiots, They only care about themselvs, There will be a strike.  

 Yes, now that I think about it, I probally should have made this a poll. I agree with Sin that the players are greedy, but try and consider this: Would there be a strike if the owners would agree not to create a system of their own durring the offseason? The reason the players feel that they need to strike, is because durring the season is when they have power over the owners.

If they waited until the offseason, they wouldnt speak again until spring training. Inbetween that time would be the Winter meetings and additional free agent signings so it would just compound the present situation even worse.

The players are just trying to protect teams like the New York Yankees so their damn payrolls keep increasing. I'm sorry, but baseball is fucked up right now witht he New York Mercenaries vs. the rest of the MLB.

 I agree that stuff needs to change, I just wish that there as an alternitive way to change it rather than a strike.

I always thought strikes were a little counter productive for the players... by not playing, no more money is coming in to pay their "little" salaries. Guess the owners get fucked too but o well...
