err...You do understand that “professional football” is merely a popular entertainment business, don't you?
Even anti-union people such as myself, acknowledge a time when Labor Unions were an absolute necessity, and a true force for the good for our entire society.
Labor Unions helped force our government to pass labor laws protecting all workers from employers who treated employees as indentured servants at best, and slaves at worst.
I thank them!
Now, they need to stop.
The laws are on the books, and honest employees can now fight against unscrupulous employers.
What honest employees now can't easily fight against, are the bastardized, criminal organizations to which Labor Unions have devolved.
That’s more of a general argument against unions which I don’t disagree with. I’m specifically talking about Pro Football. The NFL is it. There’s really nowhere else for players to go. The NFL is essentially a union of franchise owners. That’s why they are now being sued under antitrust laws since the Player’s union has decertified.
