So we've all been hearing about this whole CBA problem that the NFL has and how much it could negatively affect next season. I don't know too much about it. What is the issue and what would happen if it isn't resolved? For example, what type of things would the Niners, and other teams around the league, not be able to do?

Adam Schefter: NFL could open facilities as early as Friday so players can use them to discuss issue and sign union cards needed for recertification.

I'm more of a Keri Washingtion guy myself. Did you see her Why did I get Married? Holy smokes, Batman.

Definitely have to give it up for Kerri Washington (especially in 'Why did I get Married', I had to walk around with a wheel-barrell in front of me for a week

), but I have a hard-spot for Meagan Good...Giggity

As for the CBA, that shyt will get done on my graduation day (July 28th) b/c the lockout officially started on my birthday on March 11th...for some reason the NFL REALLY doesn't want me to be @ home when they announce this shyt, lol

I think Goodell and Smith are working out a 'handshake' deal (without fear of anti-trust lawsuits), that once the deal is ratified on both sides, the NFL will end the lock-out and let players in to work to re-certify (and train, knowing that can still go in without being a union for another 15-24 hours).

At this point I think Goodell and the owners will agree to more than that if it means for teams to get into training camp on time this weekend (so the deal is done tonight).

All this crap could have been worked out a couple months ago if both sides gave a sh*t back then.

Yeah, Steve Wyche just mentioned on NFLN the limos have rolled away, the owners are camping in beyond dinner for the whole night, and might not leave until it's done.
