I love how he says issuing an injunction is the last/ biggest action or whatever but then says the judge WILL do it.

Look the players aren't suffering any harm at all by a missed season and YES decertifying is a sham and a fuging joke.

I am to the point I hope the owners close up shop completely if they lose today. No employee should be able to rule a business and I am one of the many unemployed in the US today! Look you want half the fuging money then pay half the fuging bills. If you draw a paycheck then you are an employee and the employee salaries have gotten out of hand.

Hell break it up into the NFL/ AFL again. Then there are two leagues and no monopoly and the owners aren't subject to anti trust and can set limits on pay just like the rest of us working class have to live with.

for the players? I don't like to take sides but the players deserve around half.

I like how the NFL likes to send the message that the NFL does not need rookies to draft (doesn't need players like Cam, but really it does to make money), yet here is a FACT; the NFL can still exist without the owners but not the players. The NFL needs their players to make money, these players don't need to pay the bills because they are generating enough to take half AND pay the bills. But on the other hand I do think the players should not get more than the owners in the long run just to keep a balance.

I would propose the extra $ go to the city or charity, not sure why this is a problem.

I don't understand, the owners miss out on money just like the players do. Sure, the owners have way MORE money, but they're still losing a massive profit when the league crumbles like this. The union asserts that the owners were planning to do this from the beginning, but likewise the players union was looking to decertify from the get-go.

It's all bleh to me.

You'd think with all the free time bring unemployable has afforded you you'd educate yourself just a little about labor disputes, this one in particular, but it seems you've just focused on having bad opinions and killing handles of mr Boston every afternoon.

You mean it's not feasible to get rid of the owners and just have the players work for themselves and then give the "extra" money to charity?

      The "now it's been three years" Grade for the 2023 Draft

      By Steves89 · Posted

      Didn't  see this posted (since 2023) but since folks have been posting that you can't judge a draft class for three years (a ridiculous take), I thought I'd post this to see what people thought about the 2023 draft. Unfortunately this may not be the most interesting class to do this with but I do quite like retrospective draft grades. Would appreciate other's takes on this (and other recent) draft classes.   1(1) - Bryce Young QB: I am a bigger Bryce Young apologist than most (maybe all). I like the kid. But there is no way around it: This was a terrible pick. If he had been picked in the 4th or even the 3rd round I would feel pretty good about it. But this was the first overall pick that we gave up two firsts, our best offensive player to get.  GRADE: C -    2(39) - Jonathan Mingo WR: not much to say here here. He was here for two years. His yards per catch are on par with Bryce's yards per pass. Rough stuff. To date he has still never scored a touchdown in the NFL GRADE: F   3(80) - DJ Johnson OLB: a pick I hated as soon as it happened and an example of why the premise of this thread is honestly dumb. This was a bad pick when it happened. Most people knew it.  Then came training camp and he did not look good. Then came the preseason which confirmed what we saw in TC. Then came the season which confirmed what we saw in preseason. To date, he has half a sack in his career. GRADE: F 4 (114) Chandlers Zavala G: Honestly the best pick of this draft which really speaks to how awful this draft is. Other than Bryce, the only pick still on the team. He is mostly average or below average depth which in round 4 is not terrible. But he had a pff score of 43.5 and though I think people have unrealistic expectations for draft picks, I still would want a little more from a fourth round pick GRADE: C+   5 (145) - Jammie Robinson S: I liked the pick when it happened but ended up being a disappointment. He logged 1 tackle with the falcons last year and not enough snaps to get a grade on PFF.  GRADE: F OVERALL DRAFT GRADE: F
