We were around in '94 when the strike shortened season happened. Going to the ball park after that was pathetic. Sometimes the fans in the stands barely outnumbered the players. At least it seemed that way. It was one of those times when you could hear individual conversations between people on the opposite side of the Metrodome. I kind of feel like another shortened season could kill baseball as we have known it. It took years to recover from that strike. Now I am the one feeling like giving up on MLB. Perhaps it's time to no longer buy a full season behind home plate. Frankly, at this point, I'm doubting I would miss it much, and it would be nice not to spend the $9,000 or whatever it is supposed to be this year for our tickets.
