A very well written article. and I agree with her sentiment on paragraph 3, something so important as making an addendum or something that would be as important as to punish someone should have been taken to an owners meeting for a vote on whether the new made up rule should be added to the new CBA or not. Not simply behind the curtains agreements and a punishment issued.

Her arguments don't hold up. She is laboring under the assumption that the two teams were punished for spending too much cash in the uncapped year - which is not what the league has said they punished the teams for.

It's also pretty clear she hasn't read the CBA.

FWIW, I believe the 29-2-1 vote at the owners meeting was whether to ratify the side letter modification to the CBA to include the penalties.
