FORT WORTH, Texas _ It feels good to be done with August.
Been a very baaaaad month in the jock kingdom. Been waiting anxiously on September.
But now, with August finally gone, let us all be thankful for small blessings.
Like no longer having to endure that daily enema otherwise known as baseball labor negotiations.

Is there a better way? Can something be done?
