Combatant Posted March 2, 2006 Share Posted March 2, 2006 The only thing that scares me is that the players are hard set on that 60%. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inigo Montoya Posted March 2, 2006 Share Posted March 2, 2006 :applause: Please someone knock some sense into this collective group!!! I hope this deal gets done, does this mean some of the cuts from other teams can be re-done??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ECU-ALUM Posted March 2, 2006 Share Posted March 2, 2006 The only thing that scares me is that the players are hard set on that 60%. And the owners are set on 56%...geez everyone agree to 58% and call it a day. Upshaw is such a jerk being set on 60%....if you need to know what he's like...I highly recomend Mark May's book..let me just say that he and Gene won't be exchanging Christmas Cards anytime soon.

I think 58 is a good compromise, now the next questions is the revenue sharing part of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
H@iL2Gibb$ Posted March 2, 2006 Share Posted March 2, 2006 "I won't come down," said Gene Upshaw, executive director of the NFL Players Association, who is asking for 60 percent of league revenue for players, four percentage points more than the owners are offering. "The players know that. Only the owners can make a proposal." So basically, Gene will turn down any proposal by the owners under 60%. What if they propose 58% Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ECU-ALUM Posted March 2, 2006 Share Posted March 2, 2006 I think 58 is a good compromise, now the next questions is the revenue sharing part of it. If they can get to that point...I think the "group of 9" would be willing to strike a deal among themselves just for the sake of labor peace. I mean would you want to be remembered as an owner who killed the deal...anyone can say what they want about Dan Snyder but the fact is he doesn't want the labor situation the way it is right now with a cap of 95million.

f_trizzy Posted March 2, 2006 Share Posted March 2, 2006 Question about players already cut: Do you guys think most of the guys that were cut were going to be let go with or without a CBA extension? I mean the only real surprise to me was the Dolphins cutting almost their entire secondary. Also surprising to not see anything happen with the Raiders yet either since they are the most over the cap. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hooper Posted March 2, 2006 Share Posted March 2, 2006 The higlight of this whole thing was Lenny P being on the radio saying everything was done, there was no chance there was going to be a delay, etc... And then five minutes later, breaking news makes him look like even a bigger fool than usual. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KingGibbs Posted March 2, 2006 Share Posted March 2, 2006 "We've set a deadline..." "we're extending the deadline..." "we may have to cut...." "we won't cut.." "we have a deal" "We' don't have a deal." This is getting absurd.All we need is someone to be a "mole" and we've got an entire season of "24" Come on now, you know we love the drama.

PCRoughrider Posted March 2, 2006 Share Posted March 2, 2006 There will be no CBA agreement because players have already been cut and those players can't be "uncut". I wished they'd stop dicking around and get to it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vi Posted March 2, 2006 Share Posted March 2, 2006 Well, this is great news! Hopefully the CBA will get done and even if it doesn't at least Bloody Sunday is a lot cooler name then Bloody Thrusday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SeanTaylor5907 Posted March 2, 2006 Share Posted March 2, 2006 question if the CBA does get extended will the cap go up 10$ million or does it just mean there will be a cap in 2007? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CPstretch Posted March 2, 2006 Share Posted March 2, 2006 There will be no CBA agreement because players have already been cut and those players can't be "uncut".I wished they'd stop dicking around and get to it. they did get uncut...for now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not true. Players cut today are uncut per Mort. There is also a thread on this if you are interested. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Titaw Posted March 2, 2006 Share Posted March 2, 2006 I still think the Skins have been the smartest out of most of the teams. They know what they are going to do in both cases and they are not acting until they have to. I love being a Skins fan!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
