Whom do you side with in the CBA negotiations

I side with the season ticket holder.

I don't think we should have to pay until a CBA is agreed upon. Screw the refund bullsh*t they are talking about. When you guys sign a deal, we will pay for the tickets.

This is an interesting twist for teams with PSL holders. JR may be leading the charge but is in a different situation in that 80% of the stadium is sold out every year unless people start letting their PSLs laps.

Which will happen if a CBA is not in place by the time bills go out.

Of course I'm renewing but whatever

Voting Pie.

When Millionaires are bitching to Billionaires about money, the whole conversation is absurd, as in out in left field absurd.

The owners need to cave some. The players need to cave some. It's in both of their interests and ours as fans. Right now it seems that this is becoming an ego match.

both sides are being a bit unreasonable at the moment. trying to hard to play hardball.

i don't mind the owners for trying to level things out after they got beat up in the last CBA, but this time they (and i'm more referring to JR's comments in the press conference) are being obstinate. the owners are saying that the players are trying to get paid more and asking to work less, while it is the owners who are looking at the situation and trying to get the players to work more and take less money.

the problem are the guys who are at the top for both parties. sadly, that means our owner is one of the problems. i respect the man, but i think he's doing more harm than good with the negotiations.

the players have only asked for a couple things that i don't think are unreasonable and then they would be fine with the plans the owners have. it should be easy to come to a point of agreement. they just need to quit being pissy.

I just think it's funny the players think they're entitled to 50% of the income.

Go ahead and name me one successful business where the employees make equal or more than the employers. Players are being greedy and think they have leverage when they don't. Owners are already filthy rich and have been preparing for this exact situation for years. I'd bet that more than half the players will be broke a month into the season and will end up taking a deal much worse than what they're being offered now.

With that said, I don't side with either. It's difficult to side with billionaire owners who are going to make us go without football for a while, and the millionaire players certainly aren't helping. Both sides need to realize they're making more money than 99% of the population and move on.

    • I don't think Dave touches the defense. That might be a mark against him but definitely a huge red flag for evero. He refuses to run anything other than soft zone and when you don't get pressure that's an awful scheme
    • You don't have to convince me. I think not picking up the option should absolutely be firmly on the table but I just do not see Tepper and Morgan doing that for previously stated reasons. Therefore I'm not going to bother entertaining the notion. Just hoping we actually get real viable competition. If that doesn't happen at the minimum then my perception of that is complete and utter professional malpractice.
    • It was absolutely a catch, and I can’t believe how many folks were stating, before the NFL’s apology, that the overturn was the right call.  The ultimate question in this case is this: can a player complete a catch with only one hand? Of course, we all know the answer to that question, and it is an emphatic “Yes.” T-Mac maintained complete control with one hand (believe it was the right) while the other came off when the ball hit the ground. The ball was in the same position in the one hand (watch T-Mac’s fingers in relation to the NFL shield on the ball) after touching the ground as it was when it first went to the ground. Going back to the question above, if one hand can establish control, then there was no need for the other to stay on the ball, so long as the ball doesn’t move in that one hand that stays on it   It blew my mind that they overturned this in the first place. This should not be a “We got it wrong on the replay because there wasn’t clear and convincing evidence.” This should have been, “That was absolutely a catch.”
