And this is it. Owners were also supposed to keep ticket prices down. It didn't happen.

Yep, teams broke the system they created.

Players take risks too Pete.

Have you seen Chris Nilan lately? They are quite beat up after their career, even though I won't drop a tear for their financial status.

Please QP, I'm sure he would give it all back and be a gas jockey instead.

As I said, I could care less.

The owners are thier own worst enemy. But it is thier money and they can do what they want with it.

If I were the players, I'd give them the 50/50 split then refuse any other rules re: contracts beause you'd know you'd just get everything you wanted in the end.

Ya but they also shouldn't give out a huge contract then 5 years later want 24% of it back. Where else can you buy something then 5 years later decide you're paying too much and demend the price be reduced by a 24%?

What's to stop all 30 owners from just agreeing (other than themselves) to limit contracts to 6 years instead of tyring to get it in the CBA?

Because they couldn't. They would all know it will be broken. But also it would have to be a "recommendation" because I believe unless it's agreed upon with the players it would be against the law.

Because you're too legit to quit...and you need to settle down Duvahkiin...you know. Get a wife, have a few kids, get a steady job.

Enough dragon killing for you.
