NFL | Salary cap deadline pushed back two hours
Wed, 8 Mar 2006 15:33:43 -0800

ESPN.com's John Clayton reports, the NFL's waiver deadline to get below the salary cap has been moved back two hours, from 9 p.m. ET Wednesday, March 8, to 11 p.m. ET.

NFL | More on owner's meeting
Wed, 8 Mar 2006 15:28:23 -0800

ESPN.com's John Clayton reports, as noted earlier, NFL owners are studying at least four different revenue plans. There is a Pittsburgh model being pushed by Dan and Art Rooney of the Pittsburgh Steelers. The plan would have each team put 25 percent of local revenues into a pool that would be distributed to teams in the lower end of the revenue streams. There is a New England Patriots/New York Jets model that expands on an already existing local revenue sharing plan. Currently, $40 million of local revenue is being shared. The Patriots/Jets model expands that number significantly. At this point no system has the 24 votes needed to pass.

Sounds like something is close but yet so ****ing far away!

leviw · 03-08-2006, 05:46 PM

Hopefully this means they're close.

Although I'm sure it's just another desperate attempt to get something done.

listopencil · 03-08-2006, 05:47 PM

So, about 4 hours and 13 minutes from right now?

**Saulbadguy** · 03-08-2006, 05:47 PM

I think they are close.

tk13 · 03-08-2006, 05:48 PM

Let's just push it back to September. Now the owners don't know what they want to do...

Hammock Parties · 03-08-2006, 05:49 PM

In two hours they'll push it back another hour, an hour after that they'll push it back another 30 minutes, then 15 more minutes, then 5 more minutes....

That golden egg-laying goose is probably looking at her watch and contemplating her next destination.

recxjake · 03-08-2006, 05:54 PM

so if it doenst happen will the chiefs drop any more players?

Coach · 03-08-2006, 06:00 PM

Just get the f**king thing done, dammit.

foxman · 03-08-2006, 06:09 PM

This is wearing me down. I guess I should just not watch for updates but it's hard not to when you care about the outcome.

I swear I am not staying up late tonight to find out it's been pushed back 3 more days like I did the other night.

I can imagine Tags and Upshaw one minute before the deadline coming out and saying "we was just ****ing with ya, we had this thing done all along, funny huh?"

Coach · 03-08-2006, 06:30 PM

ESPN SportsCenter reported that the salary cap was moved to 11p.m. ET. The Owners agreement for the new CBA will still be at 8:00 ET/7:00 CT. So about a half-hour to go.

milkman · 03-08-2006, 06:39 PM

In the meantime, we have the Eagles signing Barber, and the Rams signing Glover.

Shouldn't they also have pushed back the begining of the signings along with the cuts?

chiefqueen · 03-08-2006, 06:47 PM

Here we go again............

Is this just Tags way of taking headlines from March Madness?
