Updated Title: 8th Circuit Court Grants Stay, Lockout Reinstated

Wow, I got about half way throught that and wondered how much he had to drink? I honestly can't finish reading his diatribe. The commish can't fix this. The commish is a figure head much like the President of the USA. It's the owners vs. the players. The commish was just the voice for the owners so not everyone of them would have to show up and waist their time. He should be sending the letter to each and every owner. Both sides need a win. Neither side wants to say they lost. So, they need to sit, e-mail, phone, or something and figure out what each side can give up in order to get what they want. Funny thing is I think both sides could care less about all the other parts. All they care about is the extra 1 billion. So why can't both sides concede and split it in half. 500 mill to the owners and 500 mill to the players. Lets move on.

As a Redskin fan I "almost" wish this would go on forever because it's funny seeing a Cowboy throwing a tantrum. Oh well.

I give you credit for making it to the halfway point.

I don't. Was it emotional yes, but the point he made should be one that all of us can agree with, Get past the symbolic stuff, take the position of Commisioner to heart, and get both sides back to reality. To tint it with a throwaway line about Cowboys fans was a foolish snide remark, and that is why I prefaced it to say this wasn't a wannabe politico or simpleton, this is a man that is as respected on their board as Matty is here. Also, he definitely has contacts in the league that has given him the ability for his words to be mean something in insider circles.

I hate the cowboys as much as anyone, but this issue isn't about watching dallas fans whine, or about arguing amongst ourselves over who is more at fault, it's about both sides rolling up their sleeves, locking themselves in a room and hammering out a real and stable deal, like Hostile said.

If you can't read an emotional response from an intelligent man and fan, then that is your loss, not his.
