I think if you look at how the players contracts have been structured for a team as a whole for the past couple of years. I think you will find that many owners / FO have had their eye on 2010 as a point to somewhat cheat the old plan, by back loading the contracts to accelerate or expire on that year.
I would hope that the owners would not be stupid enough to try and give us replacement players if they don’t reach an agreement by then.Browns fan since 1961.....(semper-fi)

Couple of things.
1. These ****ing ******* players have no ****ing right to complain when they are earning millions each year doing what is essentially a hobbie as a job.
2. The owners are stupid enough to kill the competition in the league and lose themselves a lot of money long term.
I hope both parties suffer immensely as a result.

Doesn't matter. We are dealing with an industry that makes billions. The players are the ones who provide that entertainment so they are requesting their fair share if they strike. I mean, you don't really think they should just take whatever deal the owners offer them just because they will still be rich do you? It seems like these guys make a lot of money but consider that the NFLPA represents all NFL players and that the average career of an NFL player is 1.5 years. Then consider that these guys probably made an average of 1.5 mil in their time in the league. That's not enough money to live off of for the rest of their lives. So yeah, I have no problem with them striking to make sure they get their fair share of an extremely lucrative industry that they are a crucial part of.
