Judge David Doty ruled Tuesday that the NFL violated the Collective Bargaining Agreement in agreeing to TV deals that offer ongoing payments to the league during a work stoppage.
The upshot is that the Players Association now enjoys a little leverage of its own. The league will end up appealing the decision, but Doty's ruling could push the owners into a softer stance. With $4 billion now unavailable for lockout insurance, owners such as Jerry Jones, Bob McNair, and Daniel Snyder with huge stadium debts will face a much bigger challenge paying the bills during a work stoppage. That said, as PFT's Mike Florio's points out, it's also important that the union doesn't overplay its hand here if the sides are going to reach agreement with just two days before the current CBA expires.

Damit hat sich das mit dem Geld für die Fernsehverträge bei einem Lockout wohl erledigt für die NFL Owner. Bin mir jetzt ziemlich sicher das die Saison 2011 wie gewohnt stattfinden wird. ;-) :jump: rofl
