Every clueless piece of shtein who ever criticized the front office for being fiscally conservative should find the nearest hammer and beat themselves over the head with it.

It's nuclear wintertime and the Eagles have themselves a handy-dandy, fully-stocked fallout shelter constructed and ready to go.

:deion

At least three times during her report... Rachel Nichols has said "renevues".  Get your shtein straight.

She can't even get her hair color straight.  It's a different color everytime she's on.  The first few times I check to make sure that my television's colors weren't off.

I don't understand how credible sites like profootballtalk.com that are usually spot-on with their info and all these rumors that a CBA is agreed to in principle come out, and today Mortenson reports talks have broken down. I thought they already agreed to a deal?

Spot on.  :yay

- Dire as dire can get.

- The NFLPA is unrealistic in its demands for revenue sharing-- don't understand the economics going into building stadiums, investments, etc. that generate the revenue in the 1st place.

- The Skins are farged.


Upshaw should start spinning now, or hire a new PR firm.
Tags is making it look like the NFLPA is demanding revenue sharing.  If that's the case, that's a big mistake by the union.
If public perception is simply that Upshaw wants 60%, he's losing the PR battle.  People already don't like unions, let alone unions for people making millions of dollars.  They should be focusing on making the owners look like they are not unified, which is the case.

It looks like I was wrong about a last minute deal.  Now things get interesting. 
It'll all come down to the language of the original contracts.  If they're written in such a way to allow flexibility to convert and prorate bonuses, then cap numbers can be reduced in compliance with the 30%.
If not, then the league will reject the restructure, like they did with the colts.

Snyder will look like a genius if that's how he set up some of the contracts.  We'll have to see.

Rome

Snyder could have a two to one payroll advantage over every other team in the NFL and he'd still find a way to farg it up.
