[QUOTE="OldSchool101, post: 911440, member: 10086"] Murphy was part of a committee that caused a stalemate in the NFL in 1982. His ties with player unions was a known cause of the NFL strike, causing the league to shutdown for 7 games. He’s got quite a track record. My understanding is that he was blacklisted by teams’ owners league wide after showing his loyalty to the unions. That didn’t stop him, he just went and applied to the only team who didn’t have a single owner (they had thousands of them).

You can be 100% sure they are lying and want just the exact opposite. No one that believes strongly against going on a strike affecting thousands of family members casually takes just 2 hours to meet. Hung jury’s that are at a pass take days or weeks. I’ve been in a drive through fast food restaurant longer than 2 hours. Ok I’m B.S.’ing you on that part but you get the point. “I take no pleasure whatsoever in this announcement," NFLPA President Gene Upshaw of the Los Angeles Raiders told a packed news conference following a two-hour meeting of the committee. Term limits should be set on any executive leadership positions. 12 years maximum etc.. that goes for Goodell also. Each dispute causing ongoing league wide disruption should shorten the leadership term limits by 1 year. [/QUOTE]
