The CBA is in effect until the end of the 2020 season. They have three years to fund a strike fund, and players have a window to put money aside. That's the only way it's going to work.

I heard on the radio that the Dallas Cowboys had $700 million in revenue, and $300 million in profit last year. Salary cap for this year in the range of $180 million.

The only leverage the players will have is if they can sit out an entire season, no playoffs, no Super Bowl.

If I was the NFLPA union chief, I'd be working on that...yesterday, to include reaching out to NBA and MLB players to fund a "bank" for low interest loans to certain players in the event of a strike.

You show the owners that kind of staying power for a full year, and the small market owners will be less intransigent at the bargaining table.

Like I said, they have three years to plan for it. There will be no excuse if they go in unprepared against the owners.

Cowboys are a poor example, being one of the most popular teams in the world their revenue picture is vastly different. The CBA gives the players 47% of the total league revenue, which is plenty.
