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?

For those watching NFLN, Heath Evans sounds pretty dumb.

Tim Kawakami: Outrage first, then a deal. RT @Greg_A_Bedard NFLPA source told me: "Tell everyone to calm down. Haven't come this far to derail a deal."

see thats why i have a hard time believing the players. People are saying the deal sounds fair and the players knew most of what was on the table. Any changes sound minor in the counter proposals and the players hate being told what to do. The whole thing with the owners trying to sneak it in sounds stupid and I have a hard time believing most players who sound like they are completely out of the loop. I hope they calm down and agree to it tomorrow.

You would suck at negotiations.

Eyes don't get whats you mean???

Still don't get it but it's been a long day. I don't even know what side or point you are thinking i'm arguing for. Players need to calm down. Owners gave them till tuesday. Everyone is saying the deal sounds fair and that the changes the owners made are minor.

Sorry.... I tend to be obtuse.

I was just trying to say not to believe everything that you hear.

Chris Mortensen: Good news. Players wrapped call, then leadership received final details. Reviewing. A vote can come tomorrow if they can satisfy a finishing detail or 2.

Lots of allegations re: the owners not acting in good faith, and inserting new terms into the proposal, then when Eisen pressed him on specifics, he was absolutely clueless.

Guy may be a rocket scientist for all I know, but if he's going to be the face of the players, he should do his homework before going on interviews.
