This wont go on for too long, the all-stars can hold out, but the little guys can't. There will be an uprising soon. The top guys are so damn greedy.
BTW, who wants to take KG away from Boston? Gimpy piece of crap makes $21 million. He deserves about 7 of that.

:facepalm :facepalm :facepalm :facepalm
I never even expected to have a season this year, but the players and owners should be ashamed of themselves. Disgraceful.

My quick summary of what happened today:

Re: Labor talks broke down; No new meeting scheduled
I wouldn't be shocked to find out that this was just another ploy by the owners. Another stonewalling tactic in retaliation for the union only budging .5% on their end of the BRI. Negotiations will likely start up again in a day or two when Stern is feeling better and can be in attendance. If there is any validity to the claims of nearing an agreement on the MLE, it sounds as though bringing the mediator in is at least starting to pay dividends.
