Where there’s a white Bronco, there’s usually blood.

If locker room walls could talk...they still wouldn’t say “grab them by the pussy.”

If you can’t even spell a word correctly, don’t use it.

“You’d also need college athletes to join in, as the owners would be incredibly quick to hire scabs/replacements, and while the quality of play would drop, I don’t think it would drop sufficiently low to be an asset to the players.”

“For reasons I can’t illuminate”

“Whatever reason” = tons of capable people ready to step in and play for peanuts.

“Poorly negotiated” means that they could get more by striking. They tried that; it didn’t work. What does that tell you about football vs. other major sports?

Precisely. The fact that the avg. NFL career length (for the few that even make it) is 2.5 years means that the NFLPA will never be able to negotiate long-term guaranteed contracts like MLB. It’s amazing how many people fail to comprehend the difference between the NFL and all other sports. One has 50 people on a…

And.....why would that be illegal?

Are you older than 12?

It’s only half-racist. They guaranteed money to his white side; and put the incentives in for his black side. Clearly.

Absolutely agree. But it doesn’t explain why MLB vets are raping both owners and young players with 10-year deals that they have no chance of living up to.

I know you weren’t alive in the ‘80s, but they tried that. It didn’t go so well...

If you want to argue that playing a dangerous game for money should be illegal, go start that shit somewhere else. You’ve sprayed your feces all over this article enough already, have you not?

Name one normal profession where you get a 5-year guaranteed contract.

Are you saying that the 25th man on a MLB roster making $ 4 million a year is not replaceable? Of course he is. It’s just that MLB careers tend to be 10 years long, so the veterans have negotiated terms that benefit 10-year veterans (and destroy young prospects). NFL careers are 2.5 years long, so players have zero…

Is your contract guaranteed? Is a construction worker’s contract guaranteed? Of course not. MLB is the anomaly, not the NFL.

Guys having job others would gladly do for free do not generally have a “labor board”, whatever the fuck that is in your country.

So the question becomes, why are they able to get away with it over and over again? Simple answer: most football players love to play the game, and the nature of the game is such that it can only be played occasionally. It’s inherently dangerous and damaging, so much that even the finest (youngest) can only play once…

Bad example, as the Saints are the arguably the worst NFL team at managing the salary cap.
