Bronco Billy Posted June 8, 2011 Share Posted June 8, 2011 (edited) you guys should read Albert Breer's tweets, there very encouraging and he has insider access: http://twitter.com/#!/albertbreersome recent tweets today: What I'm hearing on the NFL/NFLPA summit ... "Very serious talks" on all levels -- the timing, the format and the parties that are there. One PA source said they're in a "30-day window"; League source: 4-6 weeks needed from hard negotiating to drafting deal Also in the story, league sources say cancellation of preseason = $1 billion in lost revenue. Could wreck talks. and then here's the story he wrote about it: http://www.nfl.com/news/story/09000d5d8203...get-a-deal-done I'm not a hugh fan of tweeting because there often is no verification to support the material, but this one from Omar Kelly of the South Florida Sun-Sentinal perked my ears up: OmarKelly Omar Kelly I'm told NFL coaches have been encouraged to take their vacations in June because they "expect to be busy in July." Good sign. Get it done. 4 hours ago If he got this information from someone connected to owners, that would indicate some very real progress and a hope for a new agreement. The new talks seem to be really gathering som steam. Edited June 8, 2011 by Bronco Billy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ajh2 Posted June 8, 2011 Share Posted June 8, 2011 I am also getting ready to wash my hands of the season. I hold both parties responsible for this mess just about equally. I hope for our sake they gets their gluteus maximus' in gear. I would really like to see the courts rip both side hard and heavy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
