It seems funny that TAC, Garth and I actually can agree on something.
Rich, I usually like reading your posts but these past few are a touch unnerving. If they signed an agreement five years ago for the salary they currently make, then they have no grounds for *****ing about the past five years!
Most of us recognize that they deserve more money, we all want more for our games. More than a few of us have an issue with demanding so much more or they will walk away. That is an empty threat as they will be easily replaced. Sure the talent level will be different, but that happens in every amateur game across America. Just because you had a great crew for the last game, doesnt mean that today's will be the same.
All of us pay more for the necessities of life. The cost of living has risen dramatically. Turning your back on an income in this day and age borders on stupidity. They need to reorganize, hire better attorneys and bargain for a contract that acknowledges that they are simply a resource, not the driving force in MiLB. If they don't recognize that soon, they will be working amateur ball and lose any hope of walking onto the field at Yankee Stadium as an MLB crew member.
