The NFL is now in a lock out and the Players Union desertified. The players had to split up so that the players can sue the NFL owners. Manning, Brees, and Brady have joined to head the lawsuit. They could not reach an agreement.

Even though it is sad to see the NFL not playing, I agree with the players standing up for themselves. The owners make alot of money and it time for them to share the wealth. There are players in the NFL that live on the League minimum and they are having a tough time getting by. The owners make so much revenue from TV, merchandise, etc. They need to figure out a way to so everyone is happy. I hope they come to agreements sooner rather than later.
