CBA is entering critical phase...

[Happy Panther]

Atallah, speaking to Bob Glauber of Newsday: “If owners continue to question players’ commitment to negotiations, we’re prepared to make public all our unanswered proposals.”

Aiello on Twitter in response: “While George is at it, ask him when is union going to respond to our 150 pages of draft CBA provisions that they received eight days ago. Waiting.”

Atallah on Twitter: “I would like to request an expense credit from the owners on the last three hours of my life.”

Attallah also emailed to the Associated Press that the only thing the NFL has “been committed to is a lockout.”

U agree with that story. It seems like each side is trying to out poor mouth one another. Both sides seem hell bent on a lockout. Its just greed that keeps them from splitting 6 billion.

Owners offer to split the difference.

Crickets from the Union. they are not interested in a deal.

D Smith is an AZZ

[firstdayfan]

D smith is the sole reason this is falling apart. They haven't wavered on this financial thing in two years and the the owners have given more and more away each week. The NFLPA knows it can stick it to the owners with decertification and that's what they plan to do.

[Murph]

D Smith demands a written promise that he will be provided audited financial statements of the league for the past 10 years. The promise must be delievered by 5 today or negotiations are off.

Serious hardball.

[The Total Package]

De Smith has a bad underbite. That's all I can look at when he's talking.

[BBQ&Beer]

Union is dissolved.

[Murph]

99% chance they will not have an agreement today and another extension looks less likely by the minute.

[pstall]

NFL players decertify.

Yeah...you say that right after they decertify.

DO YOU LIVE UNDER A ROCK?
