When I worked I negotiated the terms with my employer.

Play ball I say but I won't be watching.
The problem is the stands apparently will be empty so the owners will be denied the revenue for the game and probably parking and concessions depending upon their contract with who owns the stadium.

They should be trying harder to work out a solution to their differences and yes will be watching when my NY teams play.
