Dear Major League Baseball Players and Owners:

I understand you are facing a strike.
Fans are irate.
Even Dubya is furious, but then that's his new word of the month.
I saw a real pro baseball game once, the San Diego Padres playing some Colorado team. Mostly I talked through the game to all the cute chicks in our party, but the weather and refreshments were good, and the tickets were free.
I don't watch baseball on TV, that is unless I am craving the sight of a grown man scratching his balls or spitting. Surprising how infrequently that urge hits me.
So- enjoy your strike and know that after it's settled, you'll still have one person out there who won't notice whether you're playing again or not.
