Team Owners, the MLBPA, and Common Sense

I enjoy reading about the early days about pro sports teams because the one thing all those teams had in common was gaining and keeping fans. That seems to be replaced these days by many owners caring more about franchise evaluations and luxury boxes.

MLB is barreling towards a lockout or strike in 2027 and either of those outcomes seem to place the desires of the fans last instead of first. Have a new post on the situation up on Substack.

Stuff I found interesting or amusing and thought I'd share.

- Interesting - MLB and the MLBPA being sued over the move of the All-Star Game out of Atlanta. I hope they get the full $1 billion.

- The Left is despicable - this writer is worried about if the lab leak theory proves true that it will have consequences - for them! Nothing about the millions who died. Despicable. 

- Progressively Worse - Activist government's crisis of competence. Long but interesting read.(HT Newmark's Door)

- The Oral History of WandaVision. I'm a geek for this stuff.   

- China's Inconvenient Truth
