Why would the league do this unless a deal still might get done? The teams were already prepared to cut certain people in the event the CBA didn't get extended. |

Re: Free Agency pushed back 3 days
both. I think you must be under the cap when free agency starts. We have a plan so we might as well cut everyone tonight when we find out it didn't get done.

Re: Free Agency pushed back 3 days
Sounds like what they're doing is pushing back the start of the fiscal year another 3 days. If this is the case, then anything that was to have happened by the start of the new fiscal year will need to occur by the new date.
I doubt they're only pushing back one thing, because they're all tied together.

I don't understand the point of it, if true.

Re: Free Agency pushed back 3 days
No cuts tonight, 3 more days to negotiate a deal. I'm feeling a lot better about this, I think some poker is being played, and in the end things will get done.

Re: Free Agency pushed back 3 days
i heard cut time is still tonight and the skins will say something sometime after 9pm (from sportstalk 980).
i'd guess the 3 days is for the league to process the paperwork and agents to figure out what the game plan is. |
