[QUOTE="DevilDon, post: 372403, member: 2057"] Haha, that's easier than you think. How about we all agree that the NFL is a money machine and decide that we all benefit from not arguing. How about billionaire owners agree that it's at least a little bit about the history and the game. Here's the answer... Nobody is there representing the fans. We have owners and players and so on, but who pays the bills? Yep, the fans. It's arrogance to an extreme degree to think that it's all about them. It's not. It's about US, The fans pay the bills so why are there no fan representatives at the meetings? I'm not talking about an impassioned loud mouthed blowhard Bears fan. I'm talking about an even-keeled, history laden knowledgeable Packer fan who can give an honest opinion from a fan's perspective. Because let's be honest, it's OUR league. It really ****** me off that it's up to the players and the owners. Those guys don't have sheet without us. It's been said before Billionaires vrs Millionaires. But nobody there at all is representing the family that puts the dollars down. It's like Disney with all their "family" attractions asking for $8 for a hamburger. Pure BS. My perspective of the NFL is it's a fan's league. That's how it's become number 1 over baseball. So in line with that, shouldn't the fans have a say? We keep hearing thoughts on player safety and so on, but let's be real. It's all about us. If you don't field good merchandise we're angry. I suppose it's all moot considering we're Packers fans. Being a fan of the greatest organisation in the history of the league is easy. But it's not fair to the Cleveland and Detroit fans. In short, I think it's seriously wrong to fight about dollars without a representative of the source of those dollars. And think of this. Every single fan in the NFL will shoot the 18 game full of holes. Does ANY BODY except the owners think this is a good idea? [/QUOTE]
