Absolutely not. It will result in parents not allowing their kids to play at the high school stage, and earlier. The pool of available players will shrink at the college level. The quality of professional players will adversely be affected. The product will suffer.

The only question is, will the fat-ass owners sitting on their artificially-generated monopoly see the rocks before the ship hits?

I was arguing this particular legal case will not prevent the NFL from operating. it is just a money-grab, that may have longer-term political overtones.

I agree with your point - it is possible may over years cause a long-term cultural shift and change in young players entering the game, etc...
