If it weren't for the small businesses counting on the traffic from these games to keep the little guys employed, I would say cancel the season.These big "kids" playing a game and earning a living have some nerve. With unemployment at record high levels and plenty of people looking for "work," I would be willing to bet there are a lot of qualified people out there that would be willing to play at a fraction of the cost.
Let's face it, sports is big money and will always be in demand but the increasing costs for players is reflected in ticket prices. These ticket prices are making it cost prohibitive for young families with lots of future fans, their kids, from going to enjoy them together.
When will we learn to start realizing that we as a society are being pushed further and further into two classes. Low income and the upper class, the days of middle class have long since passed. Time for us to wake up and roll things back or we the people will only be enjoying these sports through the eyes of the camera in our living rooms.
The next lock out should be the time we take out the trash and start fresh!
Win win, owners can bring in fresh talent, increase profit margins, and lower ticket prices so more fans enjoy live entertainment with the family! Problem solved.
