"Based on the information we have to date, we believe the Astros' response violates the Basic Agreement," union general counsel Michael Weiner"

Apparently throwing your boss doesn't violate the Basic Agreement. Wade is a jerk for escalating things but Chacon 1) could have gone for the private meeting, or B) not attacked his boss.

Wade was wrong to escalate. Chacon was wrong for rising to take the bait. The Astros were wrong for violating the CBA. Nobody's right in this one, and for the Astros sake, they better start cleaning house with both the players, the on field management and the front office. Scorched earth time.

the headline "Oswalt tells Wade he wants out" is forming in my head.
