    If they settle with him which I expect they will, we will know what was up. If they go fighting him tooth and nail, then the truth will come out in court proceedings.

    Apparently you dont get that this is all about money.

    MLB/Media wants the NYY/Dodgers/Red Sox etc... to win because they make more money. Can have the Stros winning, it costs MLB money. What you're asking Luhnow to do will never happen. He rightly wants his 22 million and getting his money is his goal, not some kind of virtuous stance you're advocating. He didn't file a lawsuit until it became obvious he was going to be the only person blackballed by MLB and I dont blame him.

    I ge that you dont like Luhnow, I do. What I dont like is the self serving media costing a man his livelyhood. Apparently you have no issues with the medias actions in this and that's where we disagree.

    BTW, this isn't personal, I just hate to see a mans career destroyed.

    This has been my case for Luhnow from the beginning.

    This. Let MLB's hypocritical bs come to light, with all the other teams with their piling on while having done the same thing. Burn, baby, burn.

    Then let MLB recover and rebuild to something better than it was: minus the hypocrisy, favorites-playing, and that prick Rob Manfred.

    I didn't mean for this to be personal.

    I apologize if you took it that way.

    We just disagree about many things about Luhnow.

    It's obvious you dont care for him and I wonder why this is?
