Now they have to be embarrassed. Most of the media and fans are against what they did. Your right they need to settle it fast or it's going to get ugly and could cost a ton more money then their trivial 46mill they took from both teams.

I know you know this, but just to clarify the real issue here. They didnt take the money from the Redskins or the Cowboys. They took it from the players that the teams would have signed. Ala, the 1.6 million to the other teams to keep the NFLPA quiet about the obvious collusion.
I feel that a crime was committed against the players and the union is not protecting them. Smith should pursue, or the government should pursue.
