Supposedly, the MLB player's union will send the owners a new proposal tomorrow in the continuing Lockout of the Damned.
Even if the plan offers significant changes - (and, who knows, it might not) - the fancy-paints owners will not accept it.
With both sides playing a strategy of brinksmanship, talks won't truly heat up until opening day is threatened. That's another month away.
Until then, I cannot rationalize wasting energy to debate who will play 1B, or how the bullpen will look, no matter how desperate we become for a diversion from the daily news.
Baseball does not deserve absolute loyalty from its fans.
Once this thing is over - especially if it affects opening day - it will be time to register our anger.
I'm not sure how. I'm not sure where. But the fans will need to be heard.
Just sayin'...
