andrews31cain21 Posted July 9, 2011 Share Posted July 9, 2011 (edited) Seriously... They have had two years to iron out an agreement, instead they want to wait and start bargaining in the last few months before the season suppose to start. They have got the courts involved, player suits, old player suits. Now they are fretting because a judge who mediates the sessions is going on vacation. Seems like they are finding every kind of excuse not to reach a deal. Fact is, they dont need no judge to mediate the sessions, if they wanted to reach a deal they would be spending 12 hours a day, 7 days a week to bang out an agreement. They would all sign an agreement that no one leaves until a deal is reached, but yet they only want to meet a couple of days a week, and take 4 or 5 days off. I think its all BS, and I am about tired of it. The rookie wage scale is supposed to be the last sticking point, and yet it should be the easiest one to agree on. Fact is so many agents are in bed with the NFLPA, they know a rookie wage scale would thin their pockets a little.If I was a vet, and my season was in jeopardy because of players who are not even in the league yet, would severely pi$$ me offThanks for listening Edited July 9, 2011 by andrews31cain21 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
muskokas finest © Posted July 9, 2011 Share Posted July 9, 2011 Two groups of rich people, each behind a wall of lawyers getting paid by the hour. Small wonder it's not settled. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrews31cain21 Posted July 9, 2011 Author Share Posted July 9, 2011 The lawyers for the players do not want an agreement. They want to hold out so the players anti trust lawsuit goes through, and If the players win, then the lawyers will get a chunk of the billion dollar pie. IF a CBA is reached, then the lawsuits are dropped. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
