lol. The owners don't need to show them crap. If the owner's feel they need to make more money than so be it. It's not like the poor NFL stars are getting mistreated and working for pennies in a sweat shop. We are talking about people making millions of dollars a year for playing a game. They're all a bunch of whiny spoiled little kids is how I see it.

The owners do need to open up their books if they want this issue resolved. Even with the lockout the owners have a guaranteed tv contract where they still get paid even without games being played. Win win for them and shit on the players.
Not all NFL players make millions and they arent the ones who went on strike. The owners are being the whiny spoiled old grumps

That are not guaranteed like baseball or basketball. They can cut players from those big contracts at any point

All big-time NFL contracts have some guaranteed money.

Granted, not 100% like baseball or basketball.

But they all have some.

100% with the owners

why NFL players think they are entitled to more than their salaries is an insult to the rest of the hard working employee population.

you want a bigger piece of the pie then put your money where your mouth is and invest in a franchise, if not STFU and stop whining. Its called capitalism.

Me being a non football fan, I would enjoy a year without it.

I was in fear of neg reps for that comment. But I think football is too slow and boring. (now I'm really going to get neg rep'ed) To each their own I say.
