I'm not picking a side in this fight but one thing the players offered to help generate more money was to allow ads on their helmets and uniforms.

I used to consider Baseball sacrosanct. After 1994 strike, I lost a little of that belief. After the juiced balls and PEDs, it made me like it less. If you put ads on the uniforms, it'll be like our little league teams looking for sponsors... A damn joke.
