First the NFL , Now the NBA....Lockouts!

1st the NFL, now the NBA, Lockouts! We...the fans, could bring all this nonsense to a screeching halt! WE control the purse strings! But that will never happen. Know why? Because of the large number of people from which the term "fan" came from...fanatics! They would trade in their children's supper for a ticket!
When I lived in Green Bay in the mid sixties, I new Bart Starr, Paul Hornung, Max McGee, all the stars! Their pay was in the hundreds, not much. You know what they said? They LOVED to play football! period! We the fans are the reason owners and players get such astronomical pay now. We keep on accepting higher outrageous ticket prices year after year!
