$600 million will be lost because of a season-ending strike.: Finally, someone puts a big fat number on the strike. Also, nice round-up of the repercussions all around. (No mention of effects on players, tho.) The biggest minus, it seems, will be the deadly, if not fatal, cost it will have on the smaller teams. Is this big number a big deal or no big thing? (Will Major League Soccer pick up the advertising slack? Had to ask.)

From a local angle here... I think it may be a huge deal in Boston.
