labor news,and some unique football trivia...

NFL owners approved a collective bargaining agreement,late last night,but players are not happy with deal,and need to re-certify,as union,and vote on CBA,after settling on major issues,like the settlement of the new television deal,which players want a piece of that,too,and Brady et,al versus NFL,which is still not settled... i am getting real upset with this stuff... i am usually talking about football,and getting pumped up about football,but this offseason has been a real bummer... that is reason that i took off a week from blogging... the owners are trying a last power play,by voting on so-called framework of CBA,and the players are being real jerks,by saying that they need to see completed CBA,before settling on deal,and some plaintiffs,in Brady et al versus NFL,are being pigheaded about money(reports say:$10 million to two plaintiffs,and/or being unrestricted free agents-San Diego Chargers' Vincent Jackson,and New England Patriots' Logan Mankins,who both sat out some of 2010)... whether it is true,or not,it makes the fans the real losers,in this deal,when all they want to do is cheer for their teams... i am usually re-signed for the Packers' fan club by now,but i refuse to give dime one,to both the greedy owners,and players,unless this stuff is settled,and maybe not even this year,because this stuff has made me really upset,and i am a true football fan,and a diehard fan of the World Champion Green Bay Packers,and like i have said earlier,i am a true fan of the game,not just the jersey,or the team,like i love the Detroit Red Wings,and the true game of hockey,from pee wee,high school,college,minor(junior) league,the AHL,ECHL,and the NHL,and Europe... i even watch the Canadian Football League(note:Sacramento(Gold Miners)actually had a CFL team,in 1993,and 1994;they played at Hornet Field)
