jay behrensI lived a spoiled live for the most of the past 20 years. I have paid for very sporting events I've attended because of connections or my job as a limo driver. I have not paid to see a baseball game in over 10 years and I don't plan on changing that habit any time soon. 1994 pissed off to the point that I vowed then not to ever pay for a ticket to a baseball game again.
If the Twins make it to the Series (if there is one) it will be hard not to be tempted to but a ticket for at least one game, unless they match up against a certain team. Then I will have free tickets to at least one game and possible more.
Perosnally, I don't understand how ALL the players can back this insane plan that insures that only the top few percent of the players get most of the money. Makes no sense to me at all. If I was Joe Average PLayer, I'd be more worried about getting a big jump in the minimum salary than ensuring that Sosa, A-Rod, etc can get $20M/yr contracts.
