Sunday 3/5/06: CBA Talks Officially Dead
 

According to Mort, the CBA talks have broken for the last and final time just hours before teams must be under the cap of $94.5 million. Well, at least we know the CBA is officially dead and we'll have news of any cuts within the next few hours. On to see plan B!

Where do you think is best place to watch waiver wire?

Re: Sunday 3/5/06 6:40 pm: CBA Talks Officially Dead
 

So is it set in stone that 2007 will have no salary cap?

I'm listening to Sportstalk 980 and reading ESPN.com, FoxSports.com, CBSSportsline.com, WashingtonPost.com, etc. I'll be posting the cuts to the thread in the locker room "Recent Salary Cap Cuts."

After all, I know everything and am always right. ;)

Supposedly yes. There is always a chance there will be a salary cap or an extension, but it's highly unlikely given what the NFLPA and league analysrs are saying.

Re: Sunday 3/5/06 6:40 pm: CBA Talks Officially Dead
 

finely. I'm actually really excited. not because the nfl owners and players are making a really bad business decision, but because they've made me wait and now there's finally a resolution.

Didn't Mort say they would still be using blackberries?

[QUOTE=44deisel44]Didn't Mort say they would still be using blackberries?[/QUOTE]

Yes, but he also said it was unlikely that something would get done. Given that we are just a few hours away from the deadline and talks just ended, it's probably not going to happen. So, as far as I am concerned, the talks are dead and buried.

[QUOTE=44deisel44]Didn't Mort say they would still be using blackberries?[/QUOTE]

Just imagine if that settlement hadn't been reached Friday allowing blackberries to still be in use?!

I think instead of a draft countdown clock, we should have had a CBA clock going. That would have been cool

Yeah, unfortunately, that is just a few hours from now.

Re: Sunday 3/5/06 6:40 pm: CBA Talks Officially Dead

Re: Sunday 3/5/06 6:40 pm: CBA Talks Officially Dead

I guess I'm just an eternal optomist holding out for the very last detail hoping for the best. All of us want a DEAL. Pray for a deal.

Delayed cut from 10 to 11:30.

Where did you hear that?

Re: Sunday 3/5/06 6:40 pm: CBA Talks Officially Dead
 

I heard it on ESPN radio. You can go to there web site and listen to it there

Re: Sunday 3/5/06 6:40 pm: CBA Talks Officially Dead
 

I know the extra time could help us, but I was hoping to get the news sooner instead of later about roster cuts, etc. The library computers close in an hour and forty five minutes; looks like I'll have to wait on the news till tomorrow. :mad:

#2 Sunday 6:00 p.m.
#3 Sunday 10:00 p.m.
