What I find most interesting is how the tide seems to be turning against the players. It seemed as if during the last lockout, most people blamed the players for being greedy, and the owners were given some slack.

This time around, it started off with the owners being the bad guys. But slowly, the focus has shifted to the players taking the blame. Yes, people are blaming the owners still, but the players are taking a lot more blame than. They were in September.
