CBA approved by owners

[Mexi]

Fans are pissed. If this doesn't get resolved quick the NFL will lose alot of its fanbase.

they still have time man
as long as no games are missed, no one will care

so NFL fans missed free agency, talking about so and so not showing up at voluntary camp, talking about blank holding out

who cares

The players are full of shit.. They have the deal in front of them yet they aren't voting on it.

I think alot of people will be pissed if we lose any games (including Week 1 of preseason).

NFLN was speculating that could be pretty soon, if they don't reach a deal by Sunday we could lose that first week.

Greediness. All it is.

lol every year everyone cries about preseason and how it's too long anyways, especially when big name guys like Vick and Clint Portis get hurt

They better get at least two pre-season games.

They're going to need more than that.

I knew that crazy bastard was up to something. Randy Lerner doesnt send you emails? I would guess he would more than Al....

 

[elcheato]

I'm pretty sure Randy Lerner doesn't even care about the NFL, he's got some soccer team overseas that loves him lol.

wow! in a 2nd email to players de smith says the nfl may be in violation of federal labor laws by trying 2 coerce players into forming a union.

My dreams have officially been answered.

People aren't going to stop liking the NFL because of this lockout. Give me a break. There is greediness in every single sport out there, and this is just getting amplified because of the market and sheer love for the game of football in the USA.

If they have football at some point this year, it will be fine.

What exactly have the players sacrificed throughout these negotiations? It seems to me like the owners have been backing down more and more on their stances over the past few months, and the players have been extremely stubborn.

This seems less like "negotiating", and more like a 6 year old throwing a fit.

The owners are also in the wrong here by trying to force the players' hands by releasing this news to the public.

Fuck all of them though. I'm very close to giving up, and focusing 100% on the college game. It's already a better option than the NFL anyway.

 

[WHO-DEY-BENGALS_18]

See, we are losing one fan already. lol

 

[jonathanlambert33]

From the interviews and all that, it seems like the owners have sacrifice what they wanted, while the players are still trying to get the best deal they can get, and will not sacrifice anything.

If that's the case, I may take a long ass nap.

Sounds about right, from what I've gathered. How frustrating.

I've taken a disliking to Kevin Mawae through this whole thing.
