WT: Goodell: League's CBA Not Working

[GTripp0012]

I think there is a solution to this problem. I think if the players association wants to be dicks about the whole thing, the Owners should just get them to agree to a deal which cuts the Owners a guarenteed revenue # each year that will allow them to combat the rising costs.

If the league continues to gain popularity, a higher percentage of the cut goes to the players. If revenues turn and goes the other way, then the players take the losses not the owners.

If the 2% larger slice of the revenue is really that important, than the NFLPA should put that money where their mouths are. As long as the product on the field (i.e. the players) continues to expand the market for the game, they should keep getting their revenue share increased. If inflation outpaces the rate at which the football market expands, then the NFLPA's share of the funds should take the hit.
