If the players have a grievance, they can negotiate with the League. If the League holds firm, then they can go on strike. For most scenarios with the branch and sequels, both the League and the players stand to lose. Because, of course, the fans have options also. They can stop buying tickets and/or stop watching the NFL on TV. the NFL are killing the golden goose. I won’t shed a tear.
Strike.
Until both the owners and the players bleed out...
From your lips to God’s ears.
Make it so!
