Thanks for posting, I read most of the previous ones too. Really paints a depressing picture. I remember strikes & near strikes of years past, I don't recall there being two strong personalities on each side, both of whom seem to need to make a name for themselves w/their constituents.

I think both sides have changed so much too, the players are savvier now, and expect more & that shows in the NFLPA leadership. While the owners now are more hands on in managing their teams than ever before.

Maybe both sides are bluffing & putting extreme demands out there knowing that each will back off.
