OK, refresh my memory. Just exactly WHY couldn't the players association agree to this 12 months ago?

Because the players believed they were worth more than they are and tried to bluff. But the owners called their bluff and said No Cap, No Season.

Now the players will be playing for less. It sucks for them and they ALL know it but that's life now and they must move on.

Now we just need baseball to do the same, and for the media to stop acting like if it's not NY, boston, chicago, or cali, it doesn't matter.
