“the word 'justification' has itself had a chequered career over the course of many centuries of debate. As the major historian of the doctrine has noted, the word has long since ceased to mean, in ecclesial debates, what it meant for Paul himself - which is confusing, since the debates have gone on referring to Paul as though he was in fact talking about what they want to talk about. It is as though the greengrocer treated you to a long discussion of how onions are grown, and how best to cook with them, when what you had asked was how much he would charge for three of them.” WantMeanLongFactsThreeCoursesTalkingCareersGoneCenturyMajorsDebateDoctrineTreatedCooksDiscussionHistorianJustificationConfusingReferringOnions Author:N.

“Major League Baseball's labor negotiations involve two paradoxes. The players' union's primary objective is to protect the revenues of a very few very rich owners - principally, the Yankees'. The owners' primary objective is a more egalitarian distribution of wealth. The union believes that unconstrained spending by the richest three teams pulls up all payrolls. Most owners believe that baseball's problems--competitive imbalance, the parlous financial conditions of many clubs--result from large and growing disparities of what are mistakenly treated as 'local' revenues.” BelieveTwoProblemThreeWealthResultsRichGrowingPlayerTeamConditionsProtectMajorsLaborBaseballUnionsFinancialClubsSpendingLocalsObjectivesTreatedPrimariesLeagueOwnersParadoxNegotiationDistributionRevenueYankeesImbalanceDisparityMajor LeaguePayrollPull UpsDistribution Of WealthMajor League Baseball Author:George Will

“The thing about being on the majors, from the beginning, going into this, I was like, "I'm not going to be treated like a factory," because that's never the way it was done before.

“If I were to go the major route, again, attention would probably be the first and foremost.
