Everyone else: That’s what we’re hoping for.

It’s growing in popularity. The worst thing both sides can do now is squander that by missing opening day. Get it done!

I hope he doesn’t get injured during the meetings.

I am not sure how many owners are still around from 04 but it would be so stupid to even have a lengthy lockout and ruin what has been a better product. I am hoping that both sides can get this done and we can have labor peace.
