exactly. you are seeing it as a world where the teams/owners have all the control. what everyone wants is a league where everyone is happy, including the players. that is a good idea, it just won't happen. the best we can hope for is that they put some sort of restriction on the agents or player's themselves. maybe a limit for how much you can sign a player, so no player could hold out. if they said something like, okay, you can only get paid 50 million the most in this contract for this amount of years, we would see a lot of holdouts disappear.
