The NFL: A Billion Dollar Pie

"This ruling means there is irrefutable evidence owners had a premeditated plan to lockout players and fans for more than two years."

This is a quote from the NFL Players Association. After knowing this there are now a few things we as the general public know. The owners of our respective teams have absolutely no respect for what we actually mean to the game. They said that whether there was a season or not they planned on collecting money from the television networks. Basically they don't think they need a season to make money.

Either the Players Association will either take this to court, a court that has already ruled it wrong for the owners to get paid from the networks without a season. Or the current CBA will be extended. Hopefully the owners realize that regardless of the fact that they are rich, powerful, and can very easily take away a sport that's gained popularity when all others have already had work stoppages doesn't mean they should over the players getting a very small slice of their billion dollar pie.
