Furthermore, the players are entitled to 64% of the "revenue", even though the owners won't open the books for the union to observe. It's a joke.
Without the players, there IS no NFL. The players are what fill the seats, pay the bills, sell the jerseys and make the NFL a multi-billion dollar corporation, free of Anti-Trust laws.
The players deserve everything they can get.

Exactly. I never understand the frequent "players are overpaid and should never get X amount of dollars to play a game" argument that always comes up in response to salary disputes.
