An open note to all basketball fans, not just Bulls fans.
The owners and players continue to haggle over how to divvy up billions of dollars, and this season may be delayed or even cancelled altogether. The owners and players will eventually come to an agreement. They will still make millions of dollars. But what will this mean to you and me, the fans? Mark these words.
YOU WILL PAY MORE! The ticket prices will surely rise. (especially for Bulls fans). The concession and merchandise prices will rise. The cable, satellite and league pass prices will rise.
Will your pay rise commensurately?

A note to the owners and players. I started following baseball in 1974. My love affair with baseball soured greatly after the 1981 strike and ended completely after the 1990 strike. I no longer watch baseball or care for the sport. There are always other diversions.

This is the state of buisness in the USA. There is no loyalty. There is no responsibility. There is only the mad grab for as much cash as you can get and to hell with everyone else.
I have learned this the hard way. I spent 4 days a week away from home for 6 months to help my company through a natural disaster. They admitted that they could not have gotten through it as smoothly without me. What did I get in return? A pink slip and a few weeks pay when the stock fell a couple of months later. CEO got his bonus though, so that was good.
The only one looking out for you is you. Never forget it.

Yeah, yeah. It’s easy to talk about how none of the players and owners should care about money. But i bet if it was your job and your boss or your employees, you’d care an awful lot.

The only subject the NBA players and owners should be arguing about is starting the NBA season on time and revenue sharing,instead of being totally greedy and selfish like total cowards, hey let’s be MEN instead of cowardly ladies who are always concerned about themselves and that totally meaningless green dough who everyone on the face of this earth have always acted like as if they have never even seen money all the way up to this day.GO BULLS!!!!!!!!!!!!!
