Monte Pool of the Oakland Tribune, in
an eloquent syndicated article this morning, again made the point that so many have made and so few of those in power seem to understand.
Fans, quite frankly, don't care about [NFL Commissioner Roger] Goodell and [NFLPA Executive Director DeMaurice] Smith.
Fans care about having an NFL team nearby or seeing one from their living rooms. They care about tailgating or sitting before bigscreen TVs. They care about the price of season tickets, the price of NFL Sunday Ticket, the price of NFL Network.
They care less about the chiefs in the labor beef than they do about the price of the jersey they'll torch in a moment of outrage.
