Judges sides w/ players on lockout insurance

It nothing. The NFL will not change its stance the players are gonna get locked out, the Union busted and come September, October and November when the players are going broke, they will crawl back to the table.

Oh and if the NFL wants, they can appeal Doty's decision to the federal appeals court and most likely get it over ruled.

Win!

How are the owners at fault? The owners may have made the move to opt out, but the move was far less aggressive than people would like you to think. Players opt out of unprofitable contracts in order to negotiate better ones all the time and yet we don't call that going on strike. To me this situation is no different from the contract expiring.

I'm with the owners.

I believe Judge Doty is the same guy who blocked the NFL from suspending the Williams of the Vikings for failing drug tests. He is a liberal judge on the side of the unions. The NFLPA knew how this judge would rule. It would be interesting if the league would appeal this ruling as it is obviously from a partisan judge.

It will be appealed and wil lbe overturned.

They expected this with Doty. He has a history of siding with unions.

I've noticed that every that has sided w/ the owners doesn't think this matters...blind sheep

It definitely matters....if it is not appealed and overturned.

It definitely will be appealed....and has a very high liklihood of being overturned.

    • He's not wrong though. You talk like a politician on here. Leaving yourself just enough wiggle room to say you never fully counted Bryce out if you need to....But we can all see it. Just say you think he is a bust outright and you will have to type a lot less. Obfuscating your opinion behind QB3 competitions etc....
    • Most EVs are in the 90+ e-MPG meaning some measurement house somewhere compares the EV to a similar ICE model and works out how much is costs to charge (on average) versus fill up as a point of comparison. Talking long term, in the hundreds of thousands of miles?  No clue.  Some early signs are that EV batteries maintain 80% charge over 400k miles.  So there's that.   The challenge and charm of an ICE vehicle is being able to park it under a tree, get your jack stands out and tinker with your engine.  There's just not that same level of complexity in an EV.  I saw someone estimate there are 200 or so moving parts in an EV, and 2000 in an ICE vehicle.  I'm not a part counter so I can't really speak to that. I think that the EV is more the future than any type of combustion engine.  Those will still be around in specific purposes, but for most people - an EV will be the superior option in terms of efficiency.  I say that as someone who loves stupid horsepower numbers out of turbo 4 bangers and inline 6s...  I am one of those tinkers when I can be. A bigger issue for EVs is going to be the ownership versus lease.  Right now, there are INSANE leases on EVs, which is great, but what do you have at the end of that lease?  Nada, maybe some equity if you're lucky.  Where as I'm almost done paying for my car, and plan to keep it until the wheels fall off (or my son wrecks it when he starts to drive).  Will EV makers do the smartphone thing and build in planned obsolesce?  Stop updating software?  I love the tech in EVs, and I think getting more cars and trucks off the road is a good thing.  But I am still just a little concerned.  Capitalism has gotten far too extractive.
