Loved it that my guy, Al Davis, Abstained from the vote. Always tweakin an NFL tail or two when he can. I am hopeful and excited. One of the sticking points, I have heard, was a right of first refusal on free agent contracts. I would very much like to see a ROFR, as I am weary of players who get drafted, then deveolped, and finally when they reach their full potential break the hearts of the fans who watched them grow into ther roles and bought the jersy's etc then BOOM, they are of to a big city franchise. ALso really like the part about a salary FLOOR! This is long overdue and will keep the cheapass franchise owners from continuing to off all the good players and also break the hearts of fans. "Yeah, we are so sorry to see (insert name of great player here) buth we are confident that the kid we just drafted in the 7th round from greenwidget state (and whome we only have to pay $200,000 a year for) will be an upgrade at the position" Yeah, right. All in all I like the agreement as I understand it and.... GOOOOOOO RAAAAAYYYYYDDAAAAHHHHZZZZZZZZ!!!!!

David...I'm hearing the player vote is all but gauranteed.
At least we'll have something going on during the miserable months of Jan/Feb.
Does anyone know any of the specifics yet?

I posted what little I have heard (my name is Mark, BTW ) but the actual details are hard to find so far. I am sure it will be all over the sports radio talkwaves tomorrow with more details.

but the actual details are hard to find so far. Mark, you got that right. Of all sports, activity within the NFL is the most difficult to disclose. It's always been that way. I'm usually in the know by now but this one has been tight lipped.

I do not give a big hairy rats azz. If they never played another game it would be too soon to interest me. Although watching you guys bet whine & exalt is kinda fun. Watching a bunch of over sized, overgrown & way over paid children play games is not.

Yep, that I am. I hate professional sports with a passion, anything above high school level sports is wasted on me.

And don't tell me about college level, it is pro with a different pay scale.

In the new CBA you can't touch the qb who is in the motion of thrwoing.
Camp is where you make it.

David...I'm hearing the player vote is all but gauranteed. That's not what the NFL Network is saying right now. Could be for the drama effect though. Who knows...

� Beginning in 2012, salary cap to be set based on a combined share of "all revenue," a new model differentiated by revenue source with no expense reductions. Players will receive 55 percent of national media revenue, 45 percent of NFL Ventures revenue, and 40 percent of local club revenue. Interesting and sort of a selection process and game changer!

There are 1100 young new players making anywhere between 100k-400k a year, the players will pass it....book it!
