I was just about to start a collection for all of the families of the players left homeless by the strike. I'd even be willing to take some of them into my home, for as long as it takes to settle this. Thankfully, it looks like all those guys will now be able to pay their bills.

I think that is friggin rediculous to strike... you make twenty to thirty+ times a typical persons salary.. for playing a game.. doing something you enjoy.. and you complain??

Bah.. for even 10% of what they make i'd be the bat boy and wouldn't complain heh.. sheesh

Glad to see they made a deal and I was not going to have to swear off my 3rd favorite sport (sorry NFL and NHL are my favs, but baseball is a close 3rd and far and away better than my #4 sport (tennis))

I guess the only bad thing is that if baseball HAD had a strike, the NHL would have probably seen increased ratings.

...Hmmmmm, I wonder if a strike could be put into place for the NBA... Hmmmmm....

Huh ?Ironforge, you'd settle for a lousy $250,000.... for what an APE like Shahani calls ChimpChange?

I'd complain about the Taxes
(Actually, I would hire a Lobbyist to complain for me )

Any body pay $4.00 for a HotDog when they can get a K L D G with a Back-Flip of da Mouse.

(Hmmm...Maybe I should Unionize the MICE..they work for free.. )
