NHL Lockout: Hockey Fans Have a Responsibility to Act If a Deal Is Not Reached

[doniceage]

The clock is ticking on a new collective bargaining agreement for the NHL, and if a deal is not reached by this Saturday, the lockout will officially begin.

The process of negotiating a new agreement does not simply boil down to the needs of the players vs. the needs of the owners. Thousands of workers are directly affected by the state of the NHL, including everyone from parking attendants to concession salespeople to merchandise vendors.

Couldn't agree more, wealthy billionaires and millionaires who will never have to work another day in their lives are hurting a lot of people who are simply trying to make ends meet! In a fantasy world, I would just love it if the fans as a collective, when the NHL returned, on mass, did not show up for the games...I am talking a full on major league profesional sports event with a arena full of ZERO fans...with only the sound of crickets chirping...Remember, I said a fantasy, but could you imagine just how freaking stunned these "take us for granted" owners and players would be!!!!

There should be a FA: Fans Association and think of all the concessions we could ask for in this scenerio!!!
Will never happen, but wow, what a shocking paradigm shift and a Huge slice of Humble pie it would be for these ungrateful for what they have Muliti-millionaires!!!
