Well said.

The relentless sucking sound you hear are the NFL teams with their mouths to each fan's wallet. There are times when their greed seems unending.

I like this comment:

Former Skins season ticket holder...who drove 350+ miles one way to attend games. Not anymore. $5000 a seat prices, $8 hot dogs, $5 for 8 ounce sodas. I was able to treat my sons to a few years of games...something i never had...but in retrospect never really felt cheated from.

If we continue to pay the prices...they'll continue to demand them. Took my money and bought an entertainment center filled with equipment to watch from a better venue. And if there is a lock out I can use that same livingroom seat to watch Rugby.

:D

See signature!

The devil in all of this is ESPN, NBC, CBS, FOX & it's sponsers. They are the one's driving up all the player costs & letting the owners afford luxury stadiums, which escalates player salaries by paying the league & it's teams $9 billion for each season. Everyone wants to blame the owners & players when oustside interests are the problem IMO.
