All you have to do to understand why people side with the owners is ask yourself a series of questions.
1. Who has the
long term health of the league as a priority, players or owners?
2. Is keeping the NFL affordable to fans an important aspect of the long term health of the league?
3. Who makes decisions that control affordability, players or owners?

And the players don't give a shit if you can afford to watch the NFL in 10 years because on average, their career will be over.
