    What lemming actually thinks there is a health risk at this point? For athletes on top of it? Gimme a break.
    So no pitching coaches and managers and trainers with higher risk will be there? Umpires are all healthy and young?

    Leagues are too greedy to play without TV, fans, and concessions. They would rather wait on those three than play amongst themselves. Does anyone really think that the nba couldn’t play games in an empty high school gym? MLB could play at any empty field with lines and bases. Cut the brass tax and play and forgo the tv, fans, and concessions and let me know how it went.

    They know the risk when they eat all those burgers and drink all that booze. It's about time we aren't held hostage for other people's decisions and risks. I'm sure there are plenty of people who aren't obese and in bad health who want and need jobs. Enough of the excuses and making other people pay for your lack of accountability in life.

    For example, it's not our fault that Joe West is a fat ass. If he wants to ump, great. If he thinks it's too risky, bye bye. Sorry, you can't do your job? That's not on me. People act like this is umpiring during a war where bombs are being dropped out of the sky. Sheesh. This virus does nothing to 99% of people. Period. Life has risks, always has, always will, and this is nothing new or novel in terms of risk --- no matter what anyone tells you who wants a bailout.

    All the managers and pitching coaches are all fat and out of shape as well. Who will replace them? Half the pitchers are fat asses as well.

    If they would stop waiting on fans, tv, and concessions they could start today. If they wait on the fans then they will end up sitting in seats with the fans. MLB could play games anywhere. Anywhere. But choose to play where they normally play and with the usual fans, tv, and concessions. Its not going to happen on those terms any time soon.

    It's about time they moved along. In the same sense, if this world is too dangerous for (the royal) you, I have no problem with someone at his own volition self quarantining forever. We need to be honest that we've kept people alive for many years. Stop making us the bad guys for actually helping people for so long with really bad health; don't call us killers when you're the fat ass with problems.

    Don't care anymore. Seems like I have company in that regard.

    I'll still bet on Underdogs though. Maybe Home Favorites After A Blowout too...
