I don't think we will have a baseball season. It is June 1st tomorrow and it seems like they made zero steps in starting a season

Guess with owners going the extreme route with their proposal only makes sense the players did the same.

Unfortunately I agree with you.

Really bad look for baseball, but the owners have to be willing to take a loss here and it doesn’t appear that they are.
seems like owners first proposal was extreme...and players followed suit. This approach should definitely make them take longer to come to the middle ground.

It's getting to the point where it hurts to talk about. I got emotional about it a the breakfast table today. And I'm not a crier. We are killing ourselves
So let's not, not in this thread anyway

This is part of the reason why baseball has gone from "America's Pastime" to 3rd most popular professional sport and falling. At the rate they're going, baseball is gonna end up behind sawker. lol

We'll see if baseball is smart enough to figure out that canceling the season because they couldn't agree on money, in this climate, is going to make them look really bad.

Hopefully, someone will come to their senses.

I get the owners not wanting to lose any money. No one wants to lose money. The people who have lost their jobs because of this thing (aka many fans), didn't want that to happen either.
No doubt...and you might not be saying this, but players are not blameless.

In an attempt to change the topic to basketball how about putting together a Mount Rushmore of the worst players? Here's what I got for the Celtics. Along with some stats only when in Boston.

Greg Kite (1.6 ppg, 1.2 rebs, 0.3 asts, 0.1 stls, 0.4 blks) 2 rings
Jerry Sichting (5.9, 1.2, 2.4, 0.6) 1 ring
Brian Scalabrine (2.7, 1.5, 0.7, 0.3, 0.2) 1 ring
Stephon 'starbury' Marbury (3.8, 1.2, 3.3, 0.4)

My unbeatable team averges 14.0 ppg, 1.3 rebs, 1.7 asts , 0.3 stls, 0.25 blks.

I REALLY want to take this thread back to the NBA. Plenty of room elsewhere for political stuff. And the return of basketball is literally the only good news I can remember in months.

Yes, but that place is full of racist shitbirds. You can talk about stuff here without seeing them (Hmm, I wonder why)

One thing im noticing is there's 2 groups of people in most of these states.

There are people in the day who usually doing the peaceful protest then there are those who come out in the night who intentions are to loot

It follows the trend of a lot situations similar to this. Crime in general is more likely to take place at night instead of broad daylight, this tracks the same. It's a natural human condition.

Then start a thread for politics here. I want a place where I can get away from that shit.

We can use the Knicks forum. It's not like that franchise is relevant at basketball

I don't even remember him. Had to look his stats up. Glad I didn't pick him. He averaged 9.4 ppg while in Beantown. That's way too much. The leading scorer on my all time worst Celtics Mount Rushmore only averages 5.9.
