I get it. You have a valid point.

From the start, TPA and eventually the JCBA, I was screaming from the top of my lungs that Section 25-Scheduling needed to be gutted. Once again, ALPO got suckered into just 4 sections and eventually got reamed in arbitration once again. No surprise there. These guys never learn. We really need to clean house. And NO, PBS is not the answer. PBS can be up for discussion only after Section 25 has been gutted and exponentially improved for the pilot group. 2020 is right around the corner. Fights on!
