LOUISVILLEfan Posted June 19, 2008 Share Posted June 19, 2008 Two reasons:1) The CBA has set limits on OTA's (I can't stand freakin' unions)2) The regular season is very long and physically demanding. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or not? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LOUISVILLEfan Posted June 19, 2008 Share Posted June 19, 2008 Yes, the exact dates are different but basically the amount of OTA's is the same. Unions are based off Socialist ideas thus everyone being equal. Hard to believe that in a Capitalist society like ours that this still exists. If I was paying a $100M payroll every year these guys would be doing something, even if it's mowing my lawn. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They get more time BEFORE the draft to evaluate the team, but afterwards I'm pretty sure the limitations for each team is the same. Keep in mind though that each team has the right to choose whether to reduce the schedule or not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crankdatfalcon Posted June 20, 2008 Share Posted June 20, 2008 this franchise is NO LONGER in a rebuilding mode, why do yall keep sayin that? i dont get it. its not like we are still looking to dump veterans, and the cancers on this team to get younger. we have gotten rid of all the trash and gotten our future players already, so the correct term is rebuilt. not rebuilding. the process is over.

Really....? Technically we are "rebuilding" simply because there is a foundation. Building would mean, in my mind, that nothing is in place. But if you insist that "rebuilding" sucks, then to me, I'd rather have something in place to build upon than nothing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
delaigle Posted June 20, 2008 Share Posted June 20, 2008 theyhateme (6/20/2008)[/bSo we reduced ours? But will the guys be at the facility with curfews and all???The way I understand what Smith said was that they will be in the weight room working on strength training instead of on the field walking through plays.
