Or is it only people on wall street who can be greedy?As far as the lockout goes, both sides are trying to increase their portion of the pie. The difference is the players are demanding more money while not providing more in terms of productivity or services while the owners want to keep a little more of their money so they can use it to create additional income though things like stadium expansions, partnerships, etc. BTW, portions of the additional income the owners would create would wind up going back to the players in the form of higher salaries, longer term health and retirement benefits, etc.</blockquote>
