That is because if the players are not in a union and the owners try to lock them out, then the players raise an anti-trust argument they they are independent contractors and the owners are acting as a collective.

At any of these steps a settlement can occur, all that happens is the balance of power shifts back and forth.

The players may still play just like under the current CBA.

All this stuff has happened before. Millionaires arguing with billionaires.

The desertification is a joke and a complete sham. The majority of the regular people should understand that they didn't stop becoming a Union at all. They're saying this just because they couldn't get what the union wants so now it's back to it's dirty tactics. The union is alive and the only way I would even think about working with these fools if they had in the new contract that the union will no longer be no matter what. Because as soon as they get what they want the NFLPA will be back in business like they were two seconds before that.
