i totally understand your point - or at least the way you see it - but i completely disagree that having acknowledged that the outcry was so great they reversed the decision somehow makes it meaningless. i suspect it means even more. though, i suspect it had far more to do with heavy hitters and big time supporters railing than with most of the people here (and elsewhere) patting themselves on the back. i understand why you disagree. but unless you have proof - or even state you heard for a fact - that the folks who made this decision consider it meaningless you're only transferring.

do you have this data?

if not, the folks arguing it means something is every bit as valid as your insistence it means nothing.

regardless, the gesture as public recognition of by the league is happening. everyone is free to spin it as they like.

i hope this leads to less, not more, or at least more stringently-determined decisions to dim the lights. there have been some that were questionable and omissions i find unforgivable. i hate that it is so tied to celebrity. now thats it is seen as an insult not to dim the lights i'm hoping as a corrective the number will decrease and we can return to the time when, i agree, it meant more.
