Now the greedy cocksuckers are fighting over who the next mediator will be.

The epic clapping clip mixed in with Gary Busey... I don't know who's responsible for this... but they are truly a genius and a scholar amongst us mere mortals.

I'll see your Busey clapping gif and raise you the Busey family portrait.

Wow. There's been some serious, ongoing pissing in that gene pool.

Tagliblue is thought to have given the players way too much because he wanted to retire. This is also why the owners are so pissed. I just can't believe it has gotten to the point no one wants to even talk. Both sides dragged ass until 3 days before the deadline, they got a quick extension, then blew their load on a court battle.

I see your family photo and raise you a creepy destructo/epileptic gif....

The reason the Owners refused to talk to the players initially after they deceritfied, because they wanted a settlement without the court involved. He was threatening strike before he died prematurely.

The owners thought when De Smith came along and thought they could take advantage of someone, and were wrong.

If Upshaw were alive, this would be uglier.

None taken.

Upshaw did alot to keep those strikes at a minimum and yes, the owners always want the court out of the discussion. Upshaw used a mature approach to negotiating regardless his method. DeMaurice has a chip on his shoulder and there will be no compromise from this unelected, appointed player's rep. He's a thug whom has no compromise.

Oh yeah,...if Smith is allowed to reign as King over things,...we're gonna miss Mr. Upshaw.

I don't get it. You seem to take great issue with the player's in this, and have pretty much been fine with the owner's through and through. You haven't really clarified your stance at all, and most of your posts have been just insults directed at the players and other political jabbings. What is your deal?
