Good to see some sanity prevailing. I hope there are more like him. I love baseball intensely, but:
A) The worst pandemic in 100 years is raging on both sides of the border. Now is not the time to put people's lives at risk because people are bored with their current entertainment options, and
B) WTF is up with this cobbled together, nonsensical, BS season? 82 games? No games outside your time zone? 14 teams in the postseason? Don't try to force it if it can't be done properly man
Here's an idea. How about pitching in on the woefully inadequate response so far? The sooner the two countries move towards actually levelling off (and perhaps even declining, instead of helplessly watching on the sidelines, as they continue to rise) the number of cases and deaths that are happening, the sooner we can get back to real baseball.
The season the owners have proposed is like playing RBI Baseball instead of OOTP, or eating junk food instead of a great meal. If they go forward with this sh!t, I'm out. I'll be back when they're ready to play a real season, not a season that from day one will have a huge asterisk beside it. Good for Snellzilla for calling this out for what it is: BS hot garbage juice.
