Well, yes, boycotting the games would hurt Boras, but really it just hurts the game, and he goes down with it. I thought you had a more nefarious plan that would specifically target Boras. Surely, allowing one ass to ruin your love of the game only gives him more power than he deserves? Why don’t you just call the IRS tipline on him or something?

I guess all this begs the question: “Is Mike crazy?” Hey, maybe I am. Let’s not rule it out…I’m nothing if not open-minded. I am sick and tired though of Scott Boras, this pathologically deranged extortionist and disgruntled ex-minor leaguer, using my favorite sport as his own personal punching bag. He has sacked and pillaged the greatest private institution America has ever known, and no one has the guts to do a damned thing about it. If I sound mad as hell, it’s because I am.

I completely understand what you’re saying, but there is a fine line between stopping what Boras is doing and protecting the ability of free-market enterprise to function. Again, I’m not disagreeing with you, but where do we go from here?

It’s like the union argument. Protecting the rights of the workers from exploitation and unsafe conditions makes sense; holding the company’s ability to turn a profit over a barrel doesn’t serve anyone (except the union heads) in the long run.

But what’s the solution? How do you propose that MLB execs and fans fight back?

Why do we MLB fans tolerate so blithely the fact that this loathsome and greedy attorney has hijacked perhaps the greatest private institution America has ever known, simply because he wanted to turn it into his own personal cash sweepstakes? This man has even turned the MLB draft into a sick joke.

Scott Boras is the Manchurian Candidate of Major League Baseball. He has taken de facto control of the governance of America’s most beloved industry, an industry steeped in tradition, and has transformed that industry into a coarse, vulgar, and brutish place that will surely not be worth saving once he is through plundering it for every cent he can get.

Scott Boras’ maniacal and obsessive greed is a powerful and dangerous threat to the viability of Major League Baseball as a commercial enterprise. His reign of terror over the greatest sport ever conceived by man will soon reach into a fourth decade. A fourth decade! How could we have let this happen? What does it say about us that we have?

Wake up, Major League Baseball executives and MLB fans, and fight back against this dishonest and dishonorable lawyer/industry plunderer before he leaves us with absolutely nothing to continue fighting for.

Thank you Scott Boras for creating the unfortunate but very real perception amongst sports fans that being a Major League Baseball player is about nothing but maniacal greed and aggressive economic extortion. You are the most embarrassing greed-merchant I have ever seen associated with Major League Baseball, and I resent you for having turned my favorite sport into nothing more than a crazed and hostility-ridden cash sweepstakes.
