Clarrett isn't going to sue, and wouldn't win if he did. The rule is part of the NFLPA collective barganing agreement. He has no legal standing to sue. He isn't part of the NFLPA. His attorney has already advised against a law suit. And for good reasons. The players collectively bargained for the rule. He can't sue to make some one draft him.

The NBA will institute a rule soon, it will be challenged, and the NBA will win. Jessee Jackass will cry racism and claim its an assault upon young black men. We will laugh, he will find another scam.

Ironically, racism is already being implied in Clarett's case. Or am I wrong in assuming that the appearance of Jim Brown (complete with psuedo-African hat thingy on his head) at a meeting with young Clarett has no racial overtones?

This kid does not belong on a Jim Tressel team, and, one way or another, he won't be for long.

Go BUCKS!

The NFL/NFLPA will lose because they enjoy monopolistic rights. As soon as the NFL/NFLPA start to feel the antimonopoly heat from Claret's lawyer(s) they will cave. If he sues, he will win.
