Remember in 2011 when NFL players were locked out amid a contentious labor negotiation? Well, the ramifications of the NFL/NFLPA compromise have been felt hard in the past couple seasons, and tensions are beginning to rise. Whether the deal between the league and the players was beneficial or not, there is one irrefutable fact: Goodell has too much power.

After the Broncos unceremoniously bucked their fans and revoked their tickets, SFC responded with a petition. In less than two weeks it was signed more than 1700 times. Coloradans have stood up against their hometown team and told them enough is enough. Here are just a few of our favorite comments.

Just as football season was about to kick off, and we were getting ready to praise Falcons owner Arthur Blank for granting fans reasonably priced concessions, he fumbles.

After another incredibly lucrative NBA offseason which saw zero-time All-Star Otto Porter signing a contract with the Wizards guaranteeing millions more in average annual salary than NFL great Tom Brady, Buffalo Bills WR Sammy Watkins tweeted:

Taxpaying fans have footed the bill for billionaires far too long.  Local and state governments often hand over to sports team owners cash, tax subsidies, or tax exemptions to help construct or renovate new stadiums. These agreements hardly yield any positive benefit to the taxpayer or the fans. There’s little to no economic benefit, taxpayers don’t receive discounts or reasonable ticket and concession prices, and local citizens, like high school or youth league sports teams, usually can’t use the stadium at an affordable rate. New sports stadiums can be a great thing for fans, and we know that while not ideal, public funds can be a big help to these projects-- we just want the fans and taxpayers to get a fair return on their money. Sports Fans Coalition, therefore, demands that if an owner or league receives any public benefit from taxpayers, the fans get the following in return:

• Reasonable concession prices

• Discounts for taxpayers

• Discounts for public servants like military, teachers, and nurses

• Low-income fan seating options

• Free use for public schools and youth league games

• A pledge the team will not leave its local community for at least 20 years

If our taxes go into the pockets of billionaire team owners, the fans and public should get a fair deal in return.

Raiders' owner and 3rd prize contest winner at a Voldemort lookalike contest, Mark Davis, attempts to also win runner-up as the worst NFL owner by screwing over a fan base Snyder doesn’t even have the cojones to screw with — public school students.
