And the players should laugh, get up, and walk out of the room until the owners are interested in a deal, even if it means holding out the entire season.
See how that goes over.
Note that the ESPN contract with the NFL is up after the 2021 season, and the current collective bargaining agreement ends after the 2020 season. Wouldn't it be fun for the NFL to walk into that discussion having just wasted an entire season?
Remember that the current NFLPA is made of men who resolutely won't extend the current bargaining agreement from 2010 because of the bad faith from those negotiations.
Might want to read this article. When owners attempt to end a union, members of that union are pissed -- and they should be.
It’s still a lousy union. Players cross lines and backstab each other all the time. Ask the Golics about nfl players strikes. Owners have the cash and players have the egos.
Owners have the cash and players have the egos.
Owners don't have the cash - get over it. This is about splitting the money moving forward, NOT money that is already agreed-to. Cash isn't property of the owners until after they come to an agreement with the players.
Replacement players? Manziel please. [Fun auto-correct for a female dog, yes?] Don't forget the 87 season when the players were actually on strike for 3 games and Ohio State could have beat most teams in the "NFL" .. and more recently, words don't express how quickly the NFL caved to the professional refs when they went on strike and the NFL tried scab referees.
In reality, "scabs" aren't a solution when labor is actually in short supply. Owners need the players to make any money.
The upcoming 2020 negotiations will be eye-opening to many of you who think owners hold all the cards. Not only don't they hold the cards, they're going to be increasing the % they give to players whether they like it or not.
And I invite you to think - Why is it inevitable that ownership "gets" anything? They don't "own" anything [the taxpayers of the city they're playing in are footing the entire bill for their stadium fixed costs] other than an ability to take a percentage of money that ESPN/CBS/etc pays NFL players. The NFL is essentially a really expensive way to fill television airtime..

You are really coming off as clueless and how the NFL and their finances work.

Except for GB and unusual relatives they're all billionaires or multibillionaires.
What they earn from owning the NFL team is nice pocket change......in the tens of millions HOWEVER the ROI is actually staggering for some of them on buying/net worth on the teams. Some paid mere millions and the teams are worth $1 to maybe $4 billion each.

....... I'm sure we can all relate to that.

And what do you think would happen if owners tried paying players $0 for some game? Every owner would get sued - and lose. Because it's not their cash.
If the players went on strike, how quickly do you think those TV contracts would be cancelled because the owners weren't delivering the product they had asserted [to ESPN, to CBS, etc] they could? ESPN doesn't care one iota about Jerry Jones. They care how Ezekiel Elliot and Sean Lee perform on Sundays. ESPN isn't Desperate Dallas Octogenarians.. they care about sports.
NFL owners have nothing other than their own egos unless the players are out there playing. Of course "owners" stick a straw in the hose of cash coming from ESPN, but the ultimate destination of that cash isn't Jerry Jones - it's the players.

How did you get this dumb . The money goes to the owners and the owners and pay it to the players per contract after they keep half of it. End it comes from ESPN ABC NBC CBS Fox etc. etc.

I’m not arguing with you. Wouldn’t make cents.

It by no means weakens the Steelers. Aside from Connor being better, the Steelers have 14.6 mil in cap space for next year.
That along with Shaziers contract being gone, it can only strengthen the Steelers...they need a top notch DB.
Heard that Jalen Ramsey wans out of Jax !
Well I think it is debatable whether or not Connor is better but he certainly is not much worse. And as I have said it may be more about the system than the players talent it’s self that is the key there
