For the record(for other folks, Steven, you enjoy being wrong), There was no picket line.

I did, however gladly and willingly work Minor League games when asked.

And you were only asked when the MiLB umpires were on strike. That in modern day lingo, qualifies you to be called a scab, picket line or not.

I wonder how far down the list they went before your name came up? You can't go much lower in my opinion.

Well, I look on the bright side, at least he's not you! How do you keep from being banned for harassing, inflammatory, and insulting posts?

Whatever! Feel free to throw your over exaggerated insults to me.

Personally if you want to scab, you should have to take all the little perks that go along the trade.

Travel all night to get to your next destination.

Eat crappy leftover food from the concession stand.

Stay in fleabag hotels.

Do your own laundry.

Work for the low wages provided. Etc, etc, etc.

It's easy when all you have to do is show up at the ballpark. Go home to a home cooked meal. Somebody does your laundry. Sleep in your own bed. Etc, etc, etc.

I'm sure that there were probably a great many others that were asked to scab, but chose not too out of respect for the profession. It amazed me how a few wannabes would do such things, when it was basically just a bunch of young kids wanting to earn something of a better wage and per diem.

Take off the training wheels, Steve. You're beginning to sound childish in your replies to me. Time to ride like a big boy for once.

Steven,

Your disdain for me makes me proud. If you liked me , I would hate myself.

I don't understand why scabbing is something to brag about. There was one who did in another association just north of mine. He got blocked as a partner by about 90% of his membership. The only people that will work with him now are his old cronies, and newbies that don't know any better.
