Possibility of Replacements?

[blackcatgrowl]

So as far as the Owners are concerned, there is a new CBA. They have opened up the front offices and are planning on having abbreviated camps next week.

The players haven't agreed to this CBA, but they are no longer unionized... so unless they recertify, there is technically no collective bargaining process anymore.

If they don't show up for camp, they are in violation of their contracts. This could give legal avenues to fill vacancies with other people. AKA... replacements.

It's going to be really interesting how this might play out in the next couple weeks.

So, is this basically the same question that Zod asked earlier?

Err... not exactly?

He just asked if this is a strike. That's a tough question to answer, and a little different from "Can there be replacements?"

I'd happily root for replacements. You know, like people who want to play for unfathomable amounts of money.

ZERO chance for replacements... I'm flabbergasted that someone even suggested this...

It was just a question.

What do you based your "ZERO chance" on?

I can jump, run and dive really well. As long as I have my Gas X softgels on me.

The replacements would be because the regular players are on strike. If there's no strike, there's no replacements.

The replacements would be because the regular players are on strike. If there's no strike, there's no replacements.

If they don't approve the new contract, then they would be on strike in a way.

Personally, I would pull for the panthers, replacements or not. I was a skins fan back in the 80's, and I enjoyed the replacement games about as much as the regular games.
