Message: <blockquote data-quote="neilfii" data-source="post: 362637" data-attributes="member: 3821">Nice find, and thanks for the link.While I appreciate the sentiment of this whole effort I must point out the inconsistency in the logic.  This is a dispute between "labor" and "management" and we, as consumers, have no right to be a part of the negotiations.  Labor disputes affect consumers virtually every day and yet consumers are not given a the right or the privilege of attending the labor negotiations (and probably with good cause for good reasons).  Perhaps you feel that should change, and perhaps it should, but it is what it is and until it changes across the board this labor dispute should not be singled out.Yes, I understand that we, as taxpayers, have helped to finance the stadiums, and thus a part of their business, but I think you would be amazed if you knew how many local businesses you (as a taxpayer) have helped to finance (through TIF districts, etc.) and yet we (as taxpayers) have no right to be a part of labor disputes involving those companies.I am not saying it is right or that I agree with it, I am just saying that it is what it is.The truth is that we (the fans) do have a "vote" it is just a vote too many fans are not willing to exercise.  Our vote IS our money and until we are willing to withhold it we cannot expect to be much more than a faint echo in the corridors outside the room where negotiations between players and owners take place.IMO.</blockquote>
