it's all about greed.....one of the main temptations....that's why i stay in the Word of God and study my bible daily.....i remember when mlb went on strike in 94 The 1994 Major League baseball strike was the eighth work stoppage in baseball history, as well as the fourth in-season work stoppage in 23 years. The 232-day strike, which lasted from August 12, 1994, to April 2, 1995, led to the cancellation of 931-948 games overall, including the entire 1994 postseason and World Series (these numbers also account for the fact that postseason series can be of varying lengths, in addition, 12 other games scheduled to be played prior to August 12, 1994 were canceled for other reasons, mainly weather-related). The cancellation of the 1994 World Series was the first since 1904; meanwhile, Major League Baseball became the first professional sport to lose its entire postseason due to a labor dispute.....having played organized baseball from age 8 right thru high school and always an avid phils fan i was more than dismayed when the strike happened and we watched teams on no-names out there....it turned me off that anybody could strike against the game i and many others loved so dearly.....i became a non-fan since then and it was only till the playoffs last year that i started watching again....so now not only do they strike but they also cheat by using banned and illegal substances.....the whole society is fixed, looking to fix or cheat itself to the top.....that's why the market is tumbling...we let a bunch of crooks tell us what was best for us and now we see the results of their "wisdom"...put em all in jail, eye for an eye tooth for tooth, i have no pity on any of these crooks, may they get what they have coming....trust no-one but God.....
