We have MLB billionaire owners crying poor and trying to get the baseball players to play a season, but more importantly than all of this, we got waffle house fighting. It is an awesome day to be online because this waffle house thing broke. Before we get to it, I just read this, the state of Arizona is saying that they will allow major league sports

to continue.

I think May 15th with no fans in attendance.

All the California teams go hang out in Arizona.

Yeah, so the Phoenix Coyotes can play games.

We've all been waiting for them.

Congratulations, the Diamondbacks.

Or they could just do an entire season of baseball at the Spring Training Facility.

Yeah, I have hope for MBA.

I have hope for baseball, although the spinning is an issue in baseball. The move that the owners are making right now where they're crying poor, but not actually showing how they're poor is in all time move. And then somehow spinning it to be like, well, the players really got to do us a solid here and take a lot less money and have a salary cap and do a 50-50 split.

Yeah, so walk me through this because I read that the league said that they put forth, I guess the owners put forth an option to get playing again with an 82 game season that starts in July with a 50-50 revenue split. Now, I don't know what they're, I know in football, I think it's 51-49, what is it normally in baseball? baseball there's obviously no salary cap And so you have incredible salaries right what the players want to do and I think it's totally fair Is they want to come back and play for the pro-rated salary the owners are saying we're not gonna make any money this year We're gonna lose money this year Let's do a 50 50 split and that's how we can get baseball going But the owners in baseball do this funny little tricky thing where they say they're gonna lose money And then they don't show anyone how they're gonna lose money. Mm-hmm So they don't actually open their books. They don't actually tell you okay This is actually what it looks like they just cry poor and say it's got to kind of come out of your pockets too And now I think billionaire should pay for their own fucking rosters Well, and now we got the whole stupid you know like other billionaires coming to I mean JB Pritzker the governor of Illinois Coming to bat for the billionaire owners being like players really have to make some sacrifices here How about the how about the only face him how we just play pan pro rated? It's also crazy because what do you do? There's no salary cap in baseball So now you're saying there's's going to be a salary cap for one year. They signed one year deals at random numbers and then next year they go back to their salary. That's how it works. If you make a concession in a negotiation with a billionaire, chances are he'll probably give you that concession back next year so that he can make less money or she can make less money. So what you're You're saying to me is that this year, if you hypothetically have a contract that pays you $20 million, you're not going to get your $20 million.

You're not even going to get that portion of the salary for the games that you will play. Instead you're going to get a percentage of what your team's roster and the entire salary for your team's roster is based on how much revenue the league is bringing in. Correct. Okay. Yeah that's gonna be a tough sell to the players those I if I were a player

I am sure there will be public pressure to try to get them back to play

I just know I'm not gonna be someone to be in like players you have to take less just because

The the guys are saying that they're the people in charge are saying they're losing money even though

They won't tell you how they're losing money right to open up the books open up the book. Let me see the book
