Thanks for pointing out the labor dispute makes both sides look arrogant and clueless.

Now,get back to your ignorant and clueless labor dispute.

I hope the money and interest you charged me for a home playoff game that never happened gets you through the strike.

Amen Steve. Good luck in your fight over money. I am sure you will get over your embarrassment when you and your owners get that extra 2 billion dollars!

I hope that money and the interest you made off it I gave you for a home playoff game that never happened help you make it through the labor dispute.

Best owner in the NFL. Period.

I have a great idea!Give the 9 billion to Recreation and Parks in all NFL cities. Maybe we can cut crime and save some kids at the same time. I know Baltimore could certainly use it, if only to continue existing services.

He seems like a good guy ---- wish he would have been asked why Ravens are keeping Cam Cameron? I heard somewhere that the definition of insanity is "Doing the same things and expecting different results." Three years of Cameron was enough -- but, for some unknown reason Bisciotti believes it wasn't and he's the boss.

Two recurring themes to take from this: (1) the spousal (husband-wife) analogy should once again remind us that the owners-players relationship is one of business partnership, not owner-employee, and (2) the owners-players argument over money is mutually exclusive of the macro-micro economic state, meaning no matter their finances fans are willing to pay the price (in time and money) for football. As long as this condition exists in sufficiently profitable measure, owners-players as a business enterprise have no reason to be concerned about the fans’ or the nation’s economic plight. Pronouncements of moral sympathy and public embarrassment are appreciated but insufficient. Bisciotti’s remarks therefore fall short, as indicated by the fact that in those remarks he acknowledges the economic state but does not advocate that owners-players collectively agree to across the board cuts in revenues and salaries through reduced ticket prices and other NFL commodities. That would be a gesture (if genuine) truly meaningful to the fans, whether it became a reality or not, and worthy of placing Bisciotti on a moral and social pedestal. That said, I like Bisciotti as a person and a businessman and think he’s one of the best of all NFL owners, mutually exclusive of the state of the economy.

Let's not suck up too much Kevin. Add it all up and NFL owners have profited about the same way a large plantation owner profited in the Antebellum South. That's not to let the players off; most of them think they deserve more money so they can have more cars and fur coats. If the two interests were anything close to moral, ticket prices would not be too expensive for most working class fans (who are only imitated for TV these days by fat trust fund creeps in their Sunday best/worst). Owning an NFL team should be primary out of the passion for the traditions of this great American game. Playing it too for that matter. We need to find a way to take the big money out of the greedy hands and put it in a better place. Maybe we just stop paying attention to the NFL and start paying attention to local semi-pro football, where it's pure.

Let's not put on Bisciotti on the white horse just yet. He didn't say he was embarrassed to be arguing about money - he was embarrassed to be arguing about money IN PUBLIC. There is a difference. It's like the criminal apologizing for the crime in court. They aren't usually sorry for the crime, they are just sorry they were CAUGHT!

The owners and players have both been CAUGHT being petty & greedy. They aren't sorry for - they're just sorry we know the TRUTH!

..................

(ps - unless Ravens are in line to win the division - save your playoff ticket money. That is a crock that the money isn't returned. Can you say - - greedy???)

@ Timm - Get over it! Nobody guaranteed you a home playoff ticket, or required you to purchase one.
