How will getting leverage from the courts help in the specifics of a new CBA? I keep hearing that the courts can't instruct what gets put in or taken out of the CBA. They can only determine if either party broke the law. So basically the whole court issues are a smoke screen to take attention away from the sitting down and hashing out an agreement.

Funny thing about leverage is you loose some when it becomes obvious that you're desperately chasing after it. In retrospect the only thing leverage wise that I have no problem with is the NFLPA going after the Owners rainy day fund with the TV Contracts.
