A million Chicago Cubs baseball fans desperately want tickets for the Home baseball playoff games and possible World Series at Home in Chicago.

So how does Major League Baseball follow up on the excitement of the long suffering Cub's fan's enthusiastic October antics? MLB allows Fox Sports to deny access to most of the playoff games unless a household pays for the Fox 1 sports package.

Pay to watch baseball on TV. It's un-American to fans of my generation.

Like trying to reconcile belligerent opinions between the North and the South on the true causes for the American Civil War, modern baseball fans must choose their position this October not on who will win the World series but on is it fair to have limited free baseball playoff games on National television. Is free TV a right or a privilege?

It's a generational thing, us old guys who are the loyal baseball fans the MLB owners should want to please for the sake of their advertisers are being forced to boycott the sport they love because of the greedy behavior of the folks at Fox sports.

MLB, you better get your act together. Maybe the Lady was right, watching baseball in October is just a waste of time.
