of playing a complete, 162-game season, owners and players began squawking over compensation. The players say they already took a financial haircut, when they agreed in March to have their salaries prorated to however many games they wind up playing. The owners
want players to get a bigger haircut, because stadium revenues will be dramatically smaller.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

The situation veers from pessimism to optimism to screaming into the void, depending on the hour. The owners are using a familiar tactic, trying to corner the players as greedy and hoping public opinion turns against them. The players think the owners aren’t
being fair—or financially transparent—in trying to renegotiate.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
