I've never necessarily said that I'm on the owners' side. However, I do think that the players' actions have been the ones that have made this whole ordeal the giant mess it is. Maybe that was their only choice I guess. But it started as "let's sit down and talk about this" and has devolved into "we're not a union (but ignore the fact that we are acting collectively), and that makes you illegal, so we're going to sue you (collectively...but we're not a union)."
Any time you get the courts involved, the process becomes messy. And the players are the ones that have gotten the courts involved. I find that part to be irritating.
