Wow - who should root for? A league that smeared Rush as a racist, makes Vick a hero again, has monopoly status, runs pro-Obama commercials and panders to billionaire owners who shake down taxpayers to get stadiums built.
Or loads of thugs and prima donnas who sometimes break laws and get away with it.
I hope they strike and the season is canceled.
If an owner of a company is dumb enough to negotiate an individual contract with someone.....pay that person millions...AND lets the person join a union....the owner is a Bleeping idiot
Note that NFL owners have revenue sharing....which is a nice way to call SOCIALISM. Also, most of the owners play in stadiums mostly funded by taxpayers.....Miami and Washington (yes, Washington Redskins) are the only ones who play in wholly privately funded stadiums
Important to note that it will be the owners locking out players....not players on strike.
Even though a number of the players are thugs...most are not...and I will side with the players on this one. I do not go to NFL games to watch Jerry Jones own a team....

Seems you forgot about the Green Bay Packers and Lambeau Field, owned by the citizens. I believe you and Frantzie may also be wrong regarding Cowboys Stadium. The stadium was built with money from Jerry Jones. The city of Arlington DID spend some taxpayers’ dollars buying and clearing some nearby real estate to permit better access to the stadium, road improvements and parking areas. The city knew that the stadium would bring increased business and tax dollars. Many new businesses opened and have thrived. Win-win for Cowboys and Arlington.
I’m sure someone here will explain how I am wrong...
