To be clear - I want the Asterisk because it will come with winning - even if it is a screwed up season and a screwed up schedule.
I don't think people want an easy schedule or some winning advantage, but given the current schedule and challenges - you look for what can make the Sox competitive given the rules that are in place.
I do think you have a valid point about - what promises to me a substandard product provided by MLB.
I don't think playing baseball puts anyone anymore at risk than the rest of us who have to move about and interact in the covid environment. In fact - it appears the baseball players will have more precautions doing their job than the rest of us get.
winning with a screwed up season and schedule are what matters most to me. winning that way is meaningless imo. at what point do you say it's meaningless? 40 games? 20? 5? (i will also admit i was pretty upset when the schedule went from 156 games to 162)
and i DO think, based on what i've read here, that many DO want any advantage they can get.
and it remains to be seen whether or not they are more at risk. i hope you are right.
