in the long run - doesn't matter - owners ... players ... it's the fan who really loses here and now. The owners will find a way to make money, as they did before baseball. the players may need to learn a few new skills in the long run. but the fans will have to find something else to engage in now and in the future. However nothing will replace baseball's history. myself, i'm ready to delve back into spending hours upon hours digitally cleaning my vinyl records and listening to some old 60's garage rock i'd nearly forgotten about. when the powers to be decide we need baseball again, i'll decide if i'm with them. after all, we still have OOTP and it doesn't stop because of disagreements between owners and players.... it doesn't, does it? Oh i hope not.
