Getting your Trinity Audio player ready...

Fans, players and owners must realize that professional baseball is not an important part of our society, in terms of life or death. Players hit and throw a baseball and get paid much more than most people who are doing things to make a difference in this world.

They make many times that of a teacher. They get paid more than a police officer. And they have the audacity to complain about how much they make or that they are being treated unfairly.

If this continues, I call out to all fans of baseball to go on strike and not go back ever. This is tough, I understand, because my days can go as my baseball team goes.

But I am sick of greedy players not respecting what keeps baseball going in the first place–fans.
