Therefore, the NFLPA would argue that players should continue to be paid full salaries.  I guess the owners could argue that if a star player gets hurt and the teams performance level suffers, ticket sales might drop and/or the team is suddenly eliminated from the playoffs.  However, I doubt owners and the NFLPA want to get into that kind of public feud. The guaranteed money in football continues to rise for everyone involved and I don't see it stopping, unless the income stream suddenly gets drastically reduced.</blockquote>
