Supposedly yes. There is always a chance there will be a salary cap or an extension, but it's highly unlikely given what the NFLPA and league analysrs are saying.

Didn't Mort say they would still be using blackberries?

Yes, but he also said it was unlikely that something would get done. Given that we are just a few hours away from the deadline and talks just ended, it's probably not going to happen. So, as far as I am concerned, the talks are dead and buried.

Just imagine if that settlement hadn't been reached Friday allowing blackberries to still be in use?!

I think instead of a draft countdown clock, we should have had a CBA clock going. That would have been cool
