Do you care if there’s a MLB season?

Yes. If for no other reason than: no season, no Jomboy.
You think the generation of kids that grew up endlessly scrolling through 10 second videos on TikTok want to wait 20 minutes for someone to get a single hit in baseball? Good luck growing that sinking ship.
I'm not a baseball fan and it does not impact my life one bit, but I feel for the fans who aren't going to get to watch the sport they enjoy.
Will there be minor league baseball? If so, then no, not really. At least I can catch an occasional iCubs game.
What exactly do the players want? I haven't really been following and I don't care to Google it.

Yes. I have trips planned to see the Brewers on the road. My 30th, yikes, is this summer and I am planning to have a big tailgate at the game. Brewers baseball is how I unwind and relax at night, or unnecessarily raise my heart rate and damage my liver. I'm not sure I can spend another summer watching old seasons of reality shows. Might have to find a part time job at night.
Won't affect me one bit. Except having to hear about how there's no baseball.
I don't hate baseball, I just don't typically seek it out/follow it/watch it.

They lost me in the 90's when the players went on strike. Never missed it. Still won't.
Baseball used to be fun for me. Years of my team toiling in mediocrity paired with the inability to ever watch games on TV and now this drama between players and owners has my interest at an all time low. I don't think I'll miss it until that stretch between the NBA Finals and start of football season where baseball is really the only live sports option
After the Cubs won the WS, I definitely do not watch as much as I used to. I do still throw it on when I’m not doing anything else in the summer and it’s something to gamble on. With that said, I’m fine if the season doesn’t start until May
Would much rather go to a St. Paul Saints game then go watch the Twins. So long as they’re playing I don’t care much.
No sympathy for a bunch of people making 30 million a year to play a game. It’s so tone deaf right now given state of affairs in our country and around the world.

I’m a huge baseball fan. Hard to envision a summer without it. At the same time, apathy will start to set in the longer this mess drags on.
He is doing some other stuff, his GeoGuesser vids are great. But yeah, he really does make baseball fun with his vids.
It’s on the owners, it’s a lockout, not a strike. The players have moved more on their demands than the owners have.
I’m a lifelong baseball fan. Normally I purchase the MLB app so I can watch Cardinals games. This crap is wearing me out.
It’s almost like they want to kill the sport. You’ve got a product that has been struggling to stay relevant for 10 years. An organization (MLB) that willingly restricts the ability for people to consume its product (blackouts). Then the pandemic hits and you have no fans for 1.5 years. Now you’re cutting the season short for what amounts to greed. It’s so stupid.
I love spring training because it means summer is almost here. I almost never watch a game but having the highlights pop up online signifies that summer is almost here. We’ll be lucky to get games before Memorial Day at this rate.
My interest in the sport is waning. I already have less time to watch games because of family time and young kids. At best I’ll listen to games in the car. I don’t see myself doing much more to watch games anymore. MLB just makes it too difficult.
