Well, how about two shortened seasons when the players were on strike? The players had a total disregard for the fans. I think that had a lot to do with my decision not to buy a ticket. Plus these players who charge money for an autograph are no heroes of mine.
No, I don't think we blew it; I think we sent a message.
As far as the broadcasters and writers are concerned, let them pay for the tickets and hot dogs and beer they now get free, and see how many games they attend.
