*****Official Chiefsplanet NFL Lockout Talk Thread*****

[Mr. Flopnuts]

We're heading in that direction. I had forgotten that the owners were going to get paid 5 billion dollars from the networks even if they don't play games. They just had a guy on the NFL network that's in the players union, talking about some of the decisions the owners have made leading to this point. He made some compelling arguments that they've been planning this for some time.

Now, whether or not that's true is another story. But he did make a pretty compelling case. I've always been a firm believer that these things always get handled in the 11th hour. I'm not so sure anymore.

I figured I'd make this thread to discuss the issues at hand. A repository if you will, of collected information regarding free agency this year, all the way to a possible strike next year. It's unfortunate, but we're there folks.
