[QUOTE="Forget Favre, post: 301572, member: 2006"] Thank you very much aaron qb for explaining some details on what the lockout means and providing links that explain it. I don't blame players or owners in all of this. I blame capitalism and greed. Think about it. Everyone could get along just fine without as much money. Treat each players salary as others in the working world. Have a set starting amount for each and every player (300-450k) that increases with time and has bonuses based on performance and how far the team goes that year. (Are the Yikes! really getting their $ worth this year with Burnt Fail? They did more so last year.) Players and owners would have to learn to live within their means. There could still be some lavish spending (One new Lexus instead of 10. A very nice house instead of a mansion. Etc etc.) Sell tix at $10-$30 per game. Reduce merchandise prices. Etc. That would be nice but it ain't gonna happen because of capitalism and greed. [/QUOTE]
