[QUOTE="warhawk, post: 227362, member: 431"] The bottom line is this will get resolved. The current agreement had swung too far in the players corner and this is the first step to get something that is fair for both parties on the table. This was the time to act for the owners based on the agreement in place. There seems to be some who mistake this move as a power move by the owners with the most money wanting the cap removed which is just not where the owners are coming from. No salary cap is BETTER for the players and not what the owners are ultimately after. The trend in what is being paid the top five players in the draft is affecting all the negotiations from there on out and needs to get under control. I have to say I agree that something needs to get worked out when you have teams that could not make it without revenue sharing and rookies are signing $60 million dollar contracts. Doesn't take a rocket scientist to figure out that dog don't hunt. Ultimately the Players are in the position of power when it comes to settling the matter without forcing a work stoppage so as long as both sides are being reasonable this should, and most likely will, get worked out.
