Latest news on NFL labor situation as of Saturday morning 07.23.11 at 11:58 am ET
By

Here’s the latest on the NFL labor situation, as of Saturday morning:

•The NFL owners are expected to have a conference call sometime Saturday to get an update on the labor situation, according to Michael Lombardi of the NFL Network. The owners have pretty much laid low, at least when it comes to discussing anything on the labor front since verifying the proposal on Thursday night while the players have reportedly been examining the plan.

•In addition, it’s been reported that all 10 plaintiffs in the Brady vs. NFL lawsuit — including San Diego wide receiver Vincent Jackson — have agreed to sign off and drop the litigation, according to Albert Breer of NFL.com. That means the rest of the outstanding issues — including the recertification of the NFLPA and the players wishes for more of a presence when it comes to disciplinary issues — can be addressed as the talks continue to go forward.

•Meanwhile, the players have committed to work through the weekend, examining the proposal that was approved by the owners on Thursday afternoon.

    The players are spoiled brats. Shut up and sign on already. Only in American, you have employees so entitled and lazy and still want to squeeze everything, every penny, for themselves. They could not care less about the viability of the business.

    What other line of employement, a small group of employees take home 48% before everyone else? The rest of 52% has to cover other employees, including GMs, coaching staff, training, medical, stadium/parking/game day personel, and administrators, scouts, video guys, etc, etc. That’s before paying enormous costs for traveling, uniforms/gears, equipments, meals/nutrition, utility, suppliers/vendors, operating stadiums, shops, and health insurance, paying property taxes.

    These guys act like spoiled highly-paid wall street rats. They exploit the situation and enrich themselves, to the detriment of everyone else. Have they ever shown any concerns to how much Share of the Growth the video guys or the medical staff or the parking lot attedants get? Some NFL players are so dumb and could not put 3 sentenses together. The whiny bitchy dumbasses could rot in hell.

    Sign the deal already!!!!!

    A lot of of the things you say is astonishingly appropriate and that makes me ponder why I hadn’t looked at this in this light before. This particular piece truly did switch the light on for me personally as far as this particular topic goes. Nevertheless at this time there is just one issue I am not necessarily too comfortable with so while I try to reconcile that with the actual central idea of the point, permit me see just what the rest of the readers have to say.Well done.

    With all due respect…my reaction to this example is in my experience it’s NOT a good idea to question the direction given. Yes, ask a question if you don’t UNDERSTAND what’s being asked of you. Yes, ask a question if you need more information. But don’t question their direction; it’s always better to be flexible and let go of your idea of how it’s supposed to be played and just go with it. The director or casting person may have a multitude of reasons why they are asking you to do it completely differently, and opposite of how you thought it should be. If you ask a question which is obviously QUESTIONING THEIR DIRECTION, as opposed to trying to just better UNDERSTAND the new direction, it makes you seem like an obstinate actor who may not be so easy to work with. Personally I would never do that.

    Really? One of the biggest tragedies in US history, and you have comments like these? You’re nearly just as bad as the sympathizers of terrorists to be that brazen, immature, and insensitive. I don’t think “yawn” is even remotely close to a logical thought anyone should have come to mind when terrorists senselessly killed innocent people and literally blew people’s limbs to oblivion, and thousands of people came together in such a moving way to help each other cope and honor these victims. Sorry, but if you’re actually happy with the fact you’ve made a jackass out of yourself, you seriously need help.
