Any speculation how soon Kerrigan/Jenkins and Hankerson will get signed?

I thought the rookie pay scale took care of this?

It's all over SportsCenter right now. The signature of the settlement is going to take place soon. De Smith just made the announcement...

Man I'm so jacked. Finally FOOOOOOOTBALL!!!

^I'm assuming "filing transactions" means trades and signing unrestricted FAs from other teams?

Nice job to all the players involved that got this deal done. Such a relief to be able to get back to football, and with 10 years of labor peace ahead life is good.

I second that.

Now, when does the warpath paid fantasy football league start? I assume those that took part last year have first choice on whether or not to play this year?

Wow, Jeff Saturday's words at the podium were moving. Talking about all the wives, Bob Kraft and his wife... Then hugging Mr. Kraft... That was a pretty awesome moment right there.

Nah, big events simply get a firework post. Last time I did it Vinny "resigned." I think the next time I'll do it is when the Redskins win the Super Bowl.

Technically moves can start happening tomorrow, but not official until Friday. So in theory we could all find out that Kolb has been traded to the Cardinals tomorrow but it wouldn't be official until Friday.

Same would go for news on McNabb and Stainsworth eh?

Agreed...A lot of heroes (if you will) helped get this deal through, headed by Robert Kraft....how instrumental he has been to labor peace over the years.

No surprise there. Teams have way too much to do over the next few weeks to worry about facilitating an HBO camera crew. Bummer though. Love that show.
