The MLB owners have approved a proposal to present to players, as @Ken_Rosenthal reported. They plan to meet tomorrow to discuss it.— Jeff Passan (@JeffPassan) May 11, 2020
Now is when it starts to get serious. And we'll know soon enough if baseball is actually coming back in 2020.
Nothing about MLB and the MLBPA’s talks Tuesday changed the calculus in any negotiation right now: Both parties have far too much to lose to allow something as solvable as money to wreck a season. Talked more about it with @Espngreeny on @GetUpESPN this morning. pic.twitter.com/YvrDcoVsMA— Jeff Passan (@JeffPassan) May 13, 2020
Adam Silver told those on the NBA’s Board of Governors call Tuesday that if a positive test would "shut us down, we probably shouldn't go down this path,” sources said. https://t.co/tkbh9poiQD— Adrian Wojnarowski (@wojespn) May 13, 2020
This is all good news!!! Reason for celebration, even....For the past 60 days all we've have done is complain about boredom and talk about how much we miss sports....aaaannndd, now that they may come back, it's turned into a social commentary about the safety and morality of coming back?
Here's the thing,,,we, as in the general public, have ab-so-lutely no control at all. The leagues are going to do what they do and whether you fall on the side of "don't come back, wait until there's a vaccine" or "I just want entertainment"...it sincerely, doesn't matter what you think...
This isn't to say that players, coaches and teams should feel pressure or an objectivity to come back either. But, if both players unions, owners, leagues annnd state officials are going to agree to let sports come back....complaining on Twitter is tiring and nonsensical.
Instead of being skeptical, down and using it as a time for social commentary... why not just exhale, realize it's out of your control and rejoice that something we all love may be returning soon and bringing just a bit of normalcy with it.
