on of the rest of the regular season along with the post season. After an 89 year world series run, we can only say two words to describe the fall classic: Game Over. While owners are arguing the future of baseball and players do not want to break a nail on their ring finger, there is one party that is seemingly forgotten, the precious fans. They find it hard to sympathize with the people of baseball and their multi-million dollar problems when they earn a living to pay for overpriced tickets, soggy hot dogs, flat beer, and all of the other novelties that accompany a day at the ball park. America is waiting for someone to stand up, wake up to reality, and realize this is just a game. It has become a billion dollar business and all the parity and fun is being sucked out by people who are missing the whole reason America is in love with this game. Maybe baseball can look back to when it was a game and learn a thing or two, making some changes for the better. America is silently pleading with baseball to not collapse but it seems baseball does not care. On labor day of this year, when the players were lounging around their mansions watching television, Oakland A's pitcher Ron Darling said, "What do real people do on Labor Day?", wanting sympathy because of his own boredom. Well Ron, maybe next Labor Day, you will be playing baseball, but the "real people" of this land will be fed up and not watch you play. -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- ...
