because i certainly meant if there wasn't a season. your stupidity knows no bounds. i've encountered a lot of dumb people in my life. you're easily the dumbest. i wouldn't be shocked to learn that you spend you 30 minutes each morning deciding which leg to first put into a pair of pants every morning. The answer could very well have been figured out *if* you only had a brain. ![]() |

If things were to work out and we had a season, there would be some sort of cap. Right now there's no season, so no cap. |

seeing as there was no cap in 2010 and it's believed that the 2010 rules are what the owners would use in a season next year and that you know nothing about anything, i'll wait for a more informed response. |

OK. Its done. The union has decertified. Players have brought legal action (Brees, Manning, etc.).
Godall said - "The proposal we made included an offer to narrow the player compensation gap that existed in the negotiations by splitting the difference; guarantee a reallocation of savings from first-round rookies to veterans and retirees without negatively affecting compensation for rounds 2-7; no compensation reduction for veterans; implement new year-round health and safety rules; retain the current 16-4 season format for at least two years with any subsequent changes subject to the approval of the league and union; and establish a new legacy fund for retired players ($82 million contributed by the owners over the next two years)." The NFLPA side: The following is what the NFLPA listed as the issues it felt prevented a new collective bargaining agreement from being reached: • The NFL demanded a multibillion dollar giveback and refused to provide any legitimate financial information to justify it. • The NFL’s offer on March 7 to give the NFLPA a single sheet of numbers was not financial disclosure. The players’ accountants and bankers advised that the “offered” information was meaningless: only two numbers for each year. • The NFL wanted to turn the clock back on player compensation by four years, moving them back to where they were in 2007. • The NFL offered no proposal at all for long-term share of revenues. • NFL demanded 100 percent of all revenues which went above unrealistically low projections for the first four years. • The NFL refused to meet the players on significant changes to in-season, offseason or preseason health and safety rules. • The NFL kept on the table its hypocritical demand for an 18-game season, despite its public claims to be working toward improving the heath and safety of players. • The NFL wanted cutbacks in payer workers’ compensation benefits for injured players. • The NFL sought to limit rookie compensation long after they become veterans — into players’ fourth and fifth years ... •The players offered repeatedly to continue working under the existing CBA, but were rejected by the NFL five times. •Despite publicly admitting no club was losing money, that TV ratings, sponsorship money, etc. were at an all time high, the NFL continued to insist on an 18-percent rollback in the players’ share of revenues and continue to deny the NFLPA’s request for justification. |
