And Now the Fans get involved........What's this World Coming To?

As the saying goes (sort of), live by the lawyer, die by the lawyer.
With the NFL and the NFLPA knee deep in a pit of barristers, a Personal Seat License holder in Cleveland has opted to sue the Browns and the other 31 teams for threatening to renege on his right to watch pro football from his rented seat space.

“What tipped the scale for me is the labor issue between millionaires and billionaires and the fact they can’t settle it when the country is in a recession,” Lanci said. “Worse yet, they have to rub this in our faces.”

When Ken Lanci was asked about the disagreement over the 1 billion dollars that the owners and players can't decide over, Ken had a rather smart decision about what to do with that money.  I definitely think that it should be considered for at least a second.

“The owners and players can’t decide what to do with an extra billion dollars between them,” Lanci said. “I have the perfect solution.  That one billion should go to all cities that gave them money to build football stadiums they couldn’t afford to build.  This would give these cities badly needed tax relief.”

  1. Kudos to Ken Lanci!! I see his point-he's paid for his seat, and I agree with his decision to sue to an extent. Why not get in the action, as ridiculous as it seems, so is the disagreement between players and owners. He stated just like I did, we are in a time of recession and this is what it's come down to for the millionaires/billionaires...REALLY!!!!
