We the people have decided to finally protest big corporations running our lives. Politicians, in lock-step with their major corporate contributors - contributors that get them elected every year, have been accused of governing for the top 1% of this country versus the 99%. What started as "Occupy Wall Street" in New York has now spread to every major city in the U.S. & it has gone further to become a global phenomenon.
In that same sentiment I think the fans can send a great message to Red Sox management & players if Red Sox Nation decided to boycott the first home game of 2012. We could call it "Occupy Fenway Park." Instead of going into the park, let's stay outside & let NESN show an empty park on TV.
The only thing that management & players understand is money. So let's hit them where it hurts - in the pocketbook. One game with no ticket money, no concessions, no souvenirs, no TV ratings would embarass this organization into doing the right thing. The right thing is to work hard, to play hard & to never cheat your fans into caring more than our players do.
Don't ever pull a LeBron James statement on us again. We are the 99%.
