As a Dolphins season ticket holder, I think, with all the bajillions of dollars they make a year, they should cut ticket prices in half... Screw the players... Screw the owners... Let the poor fans get a break every now and again...

And, if they don't go for it and strike... Lets see how the players like havin a REAL job, bustin their asses for not enough money.... bah!!!!!

As a sports fan AND a union steward, I would like to see less of the "we need to get as rich as possible" mentality and see them pay the folks who work at the games, concessions, security, janitors, etc., a lot more money that what they do as I am sure it is not much better than minimum wage. Doesn't the guy (or girl) who prepares the food for the fans and cleans the toilets for the millionaire players and the fans deserve to share in a bit more of the revenue they are helping to create by giving the fans a better experience so that they come back again?
