I actually am almost willing to sacrifice it to see the strike happen and salaries be brought back into this galaxy. Especially for the rookies.

People can argue all they want about what players "deserve" and how hard they work to "earn" their money but I don't buy it. Not at these prices. Everyone would take the opportunities they have to wreck their bodies for the league minimum. If you are talking about the median annual income it's enough to set an intelligent person up for life after only one year.

What's more they want to talk about what they are owed as players and spend their money on shiny sh-t for their cars, teeth, knuckles, and necks instead of preparing for the future. Then they look back at the millions wasted on dumb sh-t as they are giving their medicaid info. over to the scooter store because their knees are wrecked.

But who do they blame? The NFL, the owners, and the PA.

Fvck it. I love football but the NFL is not that important to me anymore. The mockery that has been made of this game by the hoodlums, thugs, numb-skulls, and primadonnas that play, the slimy agents and runners who corrupt things that are easy for the sole purpose of profit, and the league executives that allow the rules committee to completely disregard common sense has put me off enough to not let this CBA thing worry me too much.

The fact that the public is so weak-minded and easily manipulated is what has ruined the game to begin with and given the power to the people who deserve it least.

I cannot foresee any industry (or country for that matter) with an economical structure intact that allows the tail to wag the dog. How can successful businessmen with liquid capital invest in a venture that will employ hundreds and then have a segment of those hundreds of employees run the company?

It's that way with this country and with the NFL.

Sorry, I guess to simplify i would insert the phrase "enjoy the small accomplishments necessary to move the rebuilding franchise back to a competitive level"

Much better. And now within the rules of this pointless thread I might add.
