Player's Unions in an Unprecedented Time
Description
We missed you all last week! We're back this week with a discussion of how Covid is changing the sports landscape with each passing day. Every week seems to complicate plans and make sports seem farther away. And maybe that's ok...
Our main topic this week is how we understand player's unions and labor disputes during this time. We start off with Kyrie asking if the league should even play during a time of momentum for Black Lives Matter and Covid. Even without the social justice sense of things, the MLBPA and MLB can't come to an agreement. How do we these arguments look in the context of mass unemployment? How about in the face of increased risk to players? How do they fall into the bigger conversation of unions?
