I was out with the 1994 half season strike. I just really never went back to it. Too many other things to distract me. And I am happy there are so many fans today. If baseball wasn't popular then collecting baseball cards wouldn't be as popular and fun. New baseball stuff is great for 98% of the guys on this forum, probiably. Then, there are the other 2 percent of us.
I loved playing baseball (still pay a little softball) and watching the games when I was younger. If everyone were the same the world would be a boring place. Go Rangers!

All fair points. I don’t disagree things get serious for you when there’s money involved but it’s still playing baseball for a living. If I made a million dollars a year playing tag professionally I think it would still do me some good to have some perspective about playing tag for a living.
