They are well paid and getting 50+% of the most profitable, popular sport the US has going. The owners certainly are no angels but the players are (imo) foolish sheep. They have no idea what they are risking for the sake of "being the product".

Ah well, another new journey is beginning for football fans. Lets see where this one leads

see my above post, I don't see that the players get anything by de-certifying, except lawsuits. Lawyers want lawsuits. Pash and Smith are lawyers. They want this in court. Owners are businessmen, they don't want court but will if necessary. Players are acting like "sheep" and not questioning what could go wrong for them. It will be interesting to see if the "let us play" campaign continues if they start losing things like salary floors, and vet minimum's, and draft slotting.

They all thought that the capless year was going to be a boom, but it didn't work out that way, they might oughta look at that lesson before blindly following a lawyer's lead into court. (no offense JR)

Smith gives owners till 5 o'clock to turn over 10 years of audited financials. Is there an App for that?

Seriously, if I was an owner I would have several choice words for Smith. I think it's clear he wants to lead the players to de-certification.

One way or another Judge Doty is going to firce the owners to release all of the financial information. The owners are stalling.

Is that common in labor negotiations?

CRedskinsRule · 03-11-2011, 05:03 PM

When the union decertifies, what legal premise for showing the books will the players use? Again, the complete paradigm changes once the union disbands and it is individual players against individual teams.
