From Pro Football Talk:
One of the surprising aspects of the NFL’s Thursday night press conference arose when the league mentioned that the owners approved a new supplemental revenue sharing plan. It was surprising because no one knew the NFL was considering a new supplemental revenue sharing plan.
Even more surprising was the concern expressed by NFLPA* executive director DeMaurice Smith in his mail to the player representatives regarding the owners’ supplemental revenue sharing plan.
“As you may have heard,” Smith wrote, “they apparently approved a supplemental revenue sharing proposal. Obviously, we have not been a part of those discussions.”
The NFLPA* hasn’t been part of those discussions regarding that issue because the NFLPA* showed no interest in that issue. All along, the elephant in the room was the league’s effort to fix revenue disparities by taking money back from the players. For reasons still unknown, the NFLPA* never pushed that issue.
So while there may be plenty of reasons to balk about the misguided power play that the owners have tried to pull, complaining about an issue about which the players previously didn’t care badly misses the mark.

| ASo if the players vote to oppose this deal, will the owners have to agree upon a new deal to represent to the players? If so this lockout will never end. |

| Well they had a deal planned out and then the owners secretly added things and ratified it, so the players recognized it and basically said "No, we didnt discuss this!" |

| Miss the Nfl. Without the fans, there is no flow of money coming in so they players wont play without their money. There is a downfall of the Nfl if there are no fans. That's why it should be for and about the fans, plus the Nfl should be helping develop the youth/Highschool players so they can succeed. |
