Ten things to know, right now, about the labor situation

1. A lockout is virtually certain at this point.

Last time around, we explained that a lockout would happen long before September. It’s now clear, given the comments of NFL lawyer Bob Batterman and subsequent remarks from Commissioner Roger Goodell, that a lockout will begin on March 4.

Goodell says that 490 players due to become free agents on March 4 won’t become free agents absent a new deal. Though Goodell has been reluctant to admit that free agents won’t become free agents only if the league implements a lockout, the message is clear.

Without an agreement, a lockout is coming on March 4.

I don’t know much, but I do know that Jerry Richardson has ultimate responsibility for a team that won ONE game last season. And his team traded away their second round pick, which is now the 33rd overall pick in the draft. These are the facts, and they are indisputable.

:lol:

There should have always been a third party put aside, this should ave been learned from the first lockout. You need someone with reason, without bias to go in there take the information and make it something. Strip these people of power. Give them time to agree on something and if they would rather not agree on anything then they accept whatever a third party would set up. Of course the owners would never let this happen. Old rich men don't compromise, especially ones in deteriorating mental states.

Something will happen this spring...the owners, players, league, etc. know that IF a lockout would happen, it would have catastrophic effects money-wise....but if it would happen then by golly....we'll take two first round picks back to back :cool:

    • I would write “give remmers tight end help” on a yellow sticky note and stuck it in shulas playbook the night before superbowl 50. 
    • And don’t worry about Bryce he will be great… Peyton Manning had a horrible rookie year too 😂
    • Nothing wrong with it at all until you start telling others they are bad fans or not fans. But you are the good fan because you never say negative stuff about the team.    I did many years of that type of uninformed fanning because there really was no info and coverage like there is with the internet.    I mean, I used to go to the store and get Street and Smith’s annual football issue. That was about the extent of what you could get if you didn’t live in a big city with sportswriters covering and reporting.  There was no video to look at or replay the games and if you didn’t live in the market you could only rarely see your football team play.    TI have fanned since being a kid in the early 1960s, and as late as 1995 - ‘97 I lived in Atlanta and good luck getting more than 3 or 4 games a year on TV. No radio either. No print coverage outside of an AP recap and box unless they played Atlanta.  People today that have always had the network connection don’t know.    I wasn’t very educated about the Panthers until I finally got internet.
