No, I'd rather be able to go watch a ball game in a decent seat.So, you'd rather have the owners pocket even more, than give the players a good portion of it?

Then, as BP said in Baseball Beyond the Numbers: Blame Ronald Regan.
You insist that there is something a machine cannot do. If you will tell me precisely what it is that a machine cannot do, then I can always make a machine which will do just that! -J. von Neumann

I agree with Houston...Scott Boras is an agent. Yes, he's high profile, because he is hired by high profile players, because he has a proven track record (very similiar, actually, to Drew Rosenhaus is the NFL). Is he forceful and in your face? Yes. Does he boss his clients around? No. Why? Because an agent WORKS FOR THE PLAYER. Players can say whatever they want about why they switched teams but, at the end of the day, THEY have the final say (and I think they frequently punt the blame on to the agent, who is only too happy to take it. It improves his rep as a bulldog.)

That's not the players' fault, nor the owners' fault, though. Really, it's a problem with the entire country's economic situation. But, also, it's the fault of your fellow fans, who continue to increase demand and thus, prices, and continue to pay those prices.Originally Posted by rogue9

Man, what a "problem" to have too... so much money that entertainment prices are skyrocketing. That sure does suck.
