it's not like it was dropped in her lap this morning.

It's also not like it's a simple case.

We all have an outcome we want to see - and to us that makes it cut and dried - but it's not so simple for the person who actually has to render the decision.

No judge wants to be overturned on appeal and injunctions are rarely granted. Granting this injunction assuming she does so will be HIGHLY scrutinized on all levels. Granting this injunction also establishes case precedent in this district. Net net is there is a lot more going on than the average Joe understands. Trust me on this one, this will not be decided anytime soon. Only scenario we can hope for is a short window to open for free agent acquisitions before this goes to a full trial on the merits. You don't tell a $9 billion business to stop doing something this quickly through the court system. Just doesn't happen that way because both sides are so lawyered up.

Ok we need to stop all the free agent talk, there isn't going to be Free agency this year.

Look you can't undo what would be done. If she rules for the injunction and everyone starts switching teams, then the appellate court over rules her, you can't just put them back. Nor can you delete the legal binding contracts etc. There will not be any free agent movement till this thing is settled 100%.

And honestly I HATE free agency. It has ruined the game imho. We were better off when teams had to draft and develop a team. Who cares if there were dynasty's, learn to draft better. As for as the fans, you could buy a jersey of a player and know his ass was staying there for his career unless a trade happened. That aside, there is no way in hell she can grant any form of free agency, too many issues down the road if she is overturned.

I don't see this thing getting settled till end of July if it goes to the appellate courts, they will definitely take their sweet time for the reasons you mentioned. By then its way too late for any free agency at all due to teams rushing to camp to get a season underway.

The only way you see any free agent movement is to have both parties grow the fug up and get this resolved at the negotiating table soon.

      Rookie Jersey Numbers

      By joeyxfresco · Posted

      It goes deeper than that for me. When I started watching the Panthers as a kid I fell in love with Mark Fields’ story during that SB run. He wore #58. Then TD wore it and kept the tradition of the being the soul of the Panthers. The next time someone wears #58 I hope brings that same spirit

      T-Mac or Nalo

      By tukafan21 · Posted

      T-Mac is a nickname, Tet is a shortening of Tetairoa. Like you said below... your name is Jonathan, I could see "Jonny" being considered a nickname, but Jon isn't a nickname, it's a shortening of Johnathan, see the difference? And if your mom named you Jonathan for it's biblical significance/meaning, because she was very religious, I think it would be different. T-Mac is Polynesian, so much in their culture has deeper meaning for them, particularly names.  So for his mom to feel this way, I highly doubt it's just because she likes the name Tetairoa and not Tet, it's much more likely than not to be because the name itself has a deeper meaning in their culture.   Particularly as T-Mac himself has often talked about how much his Polynesian heritage means to himself and his family. And no, I'm not saying all this because of how much he's my guy, if he was just "normal american" and his name was Jonathan and he didn't like fans calling him Jon, I'd probably just say tough poo.  It's that he's Polynesian and I know things like names have a much deeper meaning in their culture than they do in ours for the most part. For whatever it's worth, a quick google search.......
