No New CBA Without an 18-Game Season?

[oldman]

I'd support:
(5) The end of or limitations on the commissioner’s power over personal conduct;
(6) The end of or limitations on discipline for marijuana use;
(7) The meaningful sharing of new revenues associated with legalized gambling.

The real discussion here is the 18 game season and how players will be compensated for it. Adding 2% to the players fund just doesn't cut it. If they want to have the 18 game season, they have to cut 2 preseason games, add an additional bye week, and expand rosters to 57.

Adding new teams, especially with the expansion of rosters further dilutes the talent pool.
