| 8th Circuit Rules That Lockout is Legal Starting a new lockout thread with this news. Some say this is signficant because it gives the owners more ammo. Others say this ruling was expected and as far as both sides have gotten in negotiations, the owners won't use this as major leverage. Next few days are going to be huge

| Re: 8th Circuit Rules That Lockout is Legal Interesting in the ruling is that there is not a dissenting opinion by Judge Bye. Maybe that comes later, but if not then to me that seems like there won't be an En Banque appeal. Text of the ruling here edit: actually Bye did dissent. |

| Re: 8th Circuit Rules That Lockout is Legal I just hope this news doesn't disturb any current progress they have made. It would suck to start all over on any issues that have been settled.

It simply re-affirms that the owners have the legal right to have the lockout (which had essentially been granted since the appeal). But, as per ESPN there is language in the ruling that: o it exempts the rookies and FA from the lock out o it allows the players to re-file the anti-trust case in Sept. at which point the owners would face triple damages if they lose.

| Re: 8th Circuit Rules That Lockout is Legal Ok so now .... What does this all mean in regards to Rookies and FA's? I'm confused as to how to take it..... are they saying because those two groups were not technically an employee so they are not bound by the decertification? Lockout? does it mean the owners can start negotiating contracts with them because they were none employees and not apart of the lawsuit? Help..... lol. |
