BEHIND THE DECISION

'The public interest represented by the fans of professional football -- who have a strong investment in the 2011 season -- is an intangible interest that weighs against the lockout.'

-- U.S. District Judge Susan Richard Nelson

Leave it to a judge in a labor dispute to give life to a dying cause: The public interest. The above quote leapt off the page the other day mainly because the value is so seemingly fleeting in leadership circles. Whether one side or the other "wins" in the NFL lockout case is beside the point. For a shining moment, the fans' interest was represented in full glory. Other spheres should take note.
