Cancel the season and hire replacement players and certify a new union. These millionaire punks need to be thrown out in the street.
I AGREE WITH THIS


So you agree that owners should participate in illegal activities?

this. While it's technically a lockout, the players aren't going to play dice with the owner offers at this point. In theory, it's also a strike. Nobody wants to "play ball".

Players don't wanna deal with the bullshite? Go play football somewhere else.



False.

It's not your opinion but the way you express it and your obvious ignorance of the issues at hand that make us think you are stupid. Just saying

This comes with the job, they know going in that injury is a possibility. No sympathy here!


it does come with the job, which is way they wish to be compensated justly and fairly for it. If the last deal was so bad for the owners, show them the books.

The key is what you said. It is a JOB. They don't see it as a "child's game", they see it as their livelihood

And as for lack of healthcare.........join the rest of the country. At the least you had an advantage to save some of the MILLIONS you made to prepare for a loss of job or other bad financial situations, like any normal individual should......but you didn't. So don't blame the owners for your lack of financial preparedness.



You can't compare healthcare of a football player to most of the country. Most of the country isn't putting their body on the line day in and day out. Sure it's their choice to do so, but the NFL makes so much money off of their bodies that it SHOULD pay for their injuries.

Other than that I agree.

Somebody needs to tell Drew to shut up and stop posting tweets. He's going to get hell for his lastest ones.

quote:

For most of the past two years, the financial divide between the NFL and the players association consisted of the NFL wanting to double its current off-the-top expense credit from $1 billion per year to $2 billion annually, with the players continuing to get 59.6 percent of everything beyond the first $2 billion.

At one point earlier this year, the players offered to take 50 cents of every dollar earned, without regard to expense credits or anything else that would be deducted before getting out the carving knife. The proposal represented a lower percentage of total dollars than the players have received in each year since 2002.

We’re told that the discussions eventually began to focus on the team-per-team salary cap numbers, via a process that the parties referred to as “pegging the cap.” A twist on the proposal based on taking a percentage of all dollars, negotiating a specific per-year cap figure sidesteps the issue of removing certain types of expenses before cutting up the remaining money, which in turn gives the players one less reason to be suspicious regarding the league’s accounting of credited expenses under the off-the-top formula.


For your education.

No, we pretty much have empirical evidence that you're both stupid and a dumbfrick, just on this thread alone.
